SubjectRe: [PATCH] add additional symbols to /sys/kernel/vmcoreinfo data for ppc(64)
 Hey Vivek, as promised, a corrected patch

The makdumpdile dump filtering program, in some modes of operation needs
the node_data and/or contig_page_data symbols to function properly. These
symbols are missing from the powerpc kernel. This patch adds those symbols in
properly. Tested successfully by myself and the reporter.

Regards
Neil
