The with_kdump stuff we have in the spec now doesn't do anything at all afaict.
It hasn't since we stopped building ppc64-kdump.
The mechanism for how kdump works is unrelated, this is all just cruft for
building a special kernel from when it wasn't relocatable. The only arch
that still has that affliction is s390 apparently, and well.. fedora-s390?
really?
