He can just check if /sys/kernel/debug/crashlog exists after the device
crashed+rebooted.

I would also be good to have CONFIG_KERNEL_KALLSYMS=y set and compile the
kernel+modules with "KBUILD_CFLAGS	+= -fno-optimize-sibling-calls" to get
a (slightly) readable calltrace on things like MIPS.

Kind regards,
