On careful review I think I see what might be causing this. Can you
please try the following patch?
Thanks,

Yes, the spewing of messages stopped. Kernel crash dump taking is now
occurring. Patch applied to v5.15-rc7.
Reworded: THANKS! Patch works!
Dunno why the dmesg isn't right, but at least there is a core image!
[I updated makedumpfs for v5.15-rc4 -- applying a bunch of cifs/smb,
qlogic, etc. patches and was getting ready for new kernel release in a
few weeks -- couldn't debug a cifs crash. :) Down the rabbit hole...
;) ]
Intel machine booted, etc. and it has a dmesg correct. *sigh* I don't
think "I" need to worry about that. Someone else can report it.
