[PATCH RESEND] devcoredump: add scatterlist support

From: Johannes Berg
Date: Thu Apr 14 2016 - 05:59:43 EST


From: Aviya Erenfeld <aviya.erenfeld@xxxxxxxxx>

Add scatterlist support (dev_coredumpsg) to allow drivers to avoid
vmalloc() like dev_coredumpm(), while also avoiding the module
reference that the latter function requires.

This internally uses dev_coredumpm() with function inside the
devcoredump module, requiring removing the const
(which touches the driver using it.)

Greg, can you take this patch through the driver tree?
