Why put this test in the linux kernel dump test module?
I have no problem with tests, and I may be wrong but this
does not look like you are testing to see if heap corruption
triggers a crash dump. Which is what the rest of the tests
in lkdtm are about. Seeing if the test triggers successfully
triggers a crash dump.
