> Provide an escape hatch for debugging kdump failures that may involve
> pre-kdump callbacks. Add panic_pre_kdump_postpone to skip their early
> invocation in crash core without consuming the once-only guard.
> 
> When enabled, the chain runs before kdump only when
> crash_kexec_post_notifiers is also enabled. Leave the late panic call
> unchanged so callbacks remain eligible if that path is reached.
> Skipping the callbacks may prevent hypervisor crash handling.
