kmsg_dump() allows to dump kmesg buffer for various system events: oops, panic, reboot, etc. It provides an interface to register a callback call for clients, and in that callback interface there is a field "max_reason", but it was getting ignored when set to any "reason" higher than KMSG_DUMP_OOPS unless "always_kmsg_dump" was passed as kernel parameter. Allow clients to actually control their "max_reason", and keep the current behavior when "max_reason" is not set.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
