Hi Matthias,

Thanks for the patch. Some nitpicks inline:

Probably we also need to update the man page 'kexec/kexec.8' to add
documentation about the newly introduced argument.

Just a thought... sometimes the console string is also available as a
part of the '--reuse-cmdline' command line argument passed to the
kdump kernel. Can we also try to extract the --console string from the
cmdline provided to the primary kernel itself?

Just trying to understand the reasoning behind keeping the buffer 18
chars long. Can the bytes read from the console exceed the array size
here (may be a boundary check is required here to avoid overflows)?

Otherwise the patch looks ok to me.
