It looks to me like it isn't too hard to make a sparse crashdump on x86
that contains only the pages that are mapped into kernel virtual memory,
the page directory and page table pages (PDP and PTPs).  Does a crashdump
require any other pages?  I have a need for compact crashdumps, so I am
going to work on this over the weekend.
