Hi,
I'm trying to use the latest crash via the git repo, on the just
released linux-4.9-rc1 kernel, and I'm hitting this failure when loading
the vmcore. Any ideas?
My crash git HEAD is:
commit 64531dc850f2840cedafa143fe051d2cfeae5247

Apparently the 4.9 thread_info structure no longer has a "cpu" member?

The mips stackframe handling has two problems:
(1) It does not read the registers from the kernel's crash_notes if ELF
notes are not available for some reason. This is important when
debugging raw memory dumps.
(2) If one of the online CPUs did not save the ELF note

Set a default value for machdep->hz to 100, which will be used if the in
kernel config data is unavailable.

Enable SPARSEMEM support by setting this two values. It's not clear to
me if they'll work on all MIPS platforms, but they do on the ones I have
access to and should provide reasonable defaults.
