This adds a pointlessly long line.  

And looking at the code I don't see why the argument is even needed.

dump_mem() currently does an unconditional set_fs(KERNEL_DS), so it
should always use get_kernel_nofault.

When I looked at this earlier I just added a little helper to make
this a little easier to read.   Here is my patch from an old tree:
