   An update that has 23 recommended fixes can now be
   installed.

Description:

   This update for kdump fixes the following issues:

   - Fixes an issue where the OS might be hanging when triggering kdump over
     a USB disk (bsc#1101149)
   - Fixes an issue where kdump failed when a crash is triggered after CPU
     hot removal (bsc#1133407)
   - Fixes an issue where kdump could not be used on mounted nfs paths
     (bsc#1094444, bsc#1116463, bsc#1141064)
   - Fixes an issue where kdump crashed after booting the OS (bsc#1021484,
     bsc#1080953)
   - Added ':force' as an option to KDUMP_NETCONFIG to force network setup in
     kdump. This is needed to configure fence_kdump (bsc#1108919)
   - Improved the handling of NSS (bsc#1021846)
   - Fixes an issue where the kdump mount points were not unmounted before
     switching to system root. This could lead to devices being busy during
     system shutdown (bsc#1102252, bsc#1125011)
   - Fixes multipath configuration with user_friendly_names or aliases
     (bsc#1111207)
   - There's now a fallback to re-register FADUMP from userspace if the
     kernel is not able to do it (bsc#1108170)
   - Added a better fallback solution when Kernel signature is missing
     (bsc#1080916)
   - Fixed an issue where KDUMPTOOL_FLAGS has been passed several times to
     the command line on kdump restart (bsc#1072584)
