From f0482ee3669a78bdb1e15b9f9c58a9f1ffc5a997 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Purdie Date: Sat, 26 Jul 2008 09:22:45 +0100 Subject: [MTD] mtdoops: Add a magic number to logged kernel oops Add a magic number to logged kernel oops messages so that they can be more accurately detected rather than just having to rely on the sequence number. This also allows easier detection of saved crashes by userspace.
