As pointed out by Sibi (somewhere) this should be "disabled" to match
what's returned in coredump_show() and what goes into the recovery
file.

As I pointed out in a previous review, I think it makes sense to change
the default for dump_conf to "disabled" (a separate change). But in
doing so using the word "default" in the sysfs interface would be
misleading - and once it's part of sysfs it stays.

So how about changing this to "enabled"?

PS. The change of the default value of dump_conf would, in line with
Mathieu's ask, be a separate/unrelated change.
