Note that kfence fix brings down the memory requirement for fadump
capture kernel but does not guarantee a success dump capture. So,
fadump capture kernel hitting OOM in this case does not have to be
considered a test fail. Also, note that the initial failure reported
fails much earlier in the capture kernel boot unlike the kernel with
the kfence fix patch, where it made forward progress and triggered an
OOM killer eventually due to insufficient memory.

The memory requirement for fadump capture kernel is a moving target
that depends on resources and services on the system. In summary,
the kfence patch is still needed.

Kowshik, please try increasing the memory reserved for fadump from
512M to 768M or 1024M and see if that results in a successful dump
capture..
