c341345659 The crash utility has not supported Xen dom0 and domU dumpfiles since
since this Linux 3.19 commit:

  commit 054954eb051f35e74b75a566a96fe756015352c8
  xen: switch to linear virtual mapped sparse p2m list

This patch resurrects support for dom0 dumpfiles only.  Without the
patch, the crash session fails during session initialization with the
message "crash: cannot resolve p2m_top".

9531d0f551 For many years, Xen Dom0 dumps could only be saved in ELF format.
Since makedumpfile commit 349a0ed1, it is now possible to save Xen
dumps in compressed kdump format.  This patch set adds support for
these files.  Two new files, xen_dom0.c and xen_dom0.h, have been
added to provide the common functionality required by both ELF and
compressed kdump formats.
