Re: [Crash-utility] [PATCH 0/3] trace.so: Make trace dump -t work again

Hi Dave, I gave a talk at SCaLE 17x last week and was going to demonstrate using ftrace on a system that crashes, and then pulling out the vmcore file with kexec and kdump, and then pulling out the ftrace ring buffers and creating a trace.dat file with the crash extension trace.so. Unfortunately, this wasn't working as I planned. I created the following three patches, where two fix the issue (I was getting a corrupted trace.dat file), and the third actually documents the '-t' option of the dump command. Hopefully you can accept these patches.
