Re: [PATCH, RFC] panic-note: Annotation from user space for panics

Sincerely, I don't understand why we should involve the kernel to gather
this kind of information when we can use other (user-space) tools, only
to have "all" in a single report maybe? I think it's a bit weak reason
to include this additional behavior in the kernel.
