[Bug 1670696] Re: Typo in error msg when no crashkernel memory reservation is set

[Eric Desrochers]

** Description changed:

  [Impact]
  
   * There is a typo in ERRMSG of function show_mem_usage affecting Xenial
  and Zesty AND Debian.
  
  This should be :
  "show_mem_usage: No memory is reserved for crashkernel!"
  
  instead of :
  "show_mem_usage: No memory is reserved for crashkenrel!"
  
  The typo is located here in src code for Xenial and Zesty (devel
  release) AND Debian:
  
  # filename : makedumpfile.c
  10447 int show_mem_usage(void)
  10448 {
  10449         uint64_t vmcoreinfo_addr, vmcoreinfo_len;
  10450         struct cycle cycle = {0};
  10451
  10452         if (!is_crashkernel_mem_reserved()) {
  10453                 ERRMSG("No memory is reserved for crashkenrel!\n");
  10454                 return FALSE;
  10455         }
  
  [Test Case]
  
   * Take a system with no crashkernel memory reservation set
   * run command : makedumpfile --mem-usage /proc/kcore
  
   * Error message :
  show_mem_usage: No memory is reserved for crashkenrel!
  
  [Regression Potential]
  
   * No regression, it is a trivial change with no behavioural change.
  
  [Other Info]
  
- * Debian bug : 
+ * Upstream:
+ Patch has been submitted upstream (ML :kexec at lists.infradead.org)
+ 
+ * Debian bug :
