powerpc: dump kernel log before carrying out fadump or kdump
[ Upstream commit e7ca44ed ] Since commit 4388c9b3 ("powerpc: Do not send system reset request through the oops path"), pstore dmesg file is not updated when dump is triggered from HMC. This commit modified system reset (sreset) handler to invoke fadump or kdump (if configured), without pushing dmesg to pstore. This leaves pstore to have old dmesg data which won't be much of a help if kdump fails to capture the dump. This patch fixes that by calling kmsg_dump() before heading to fadump ot kdump.
