Subject: [PATCH] Introduce a new ARM64 "--machdep vabits_actual=<value>"
 command line option for Linux 5.4 and later dumpfiles, which require the
 kernel's dynamically-determined "vabits_actual" value for virtual address
 translation.  Without the patch, the crash session fails during
 initialization with the error message "crash: cannot determine
 VA_BITS_ACTUAL".  This option will become unnecessary when the proposed
 TCR_EL1.T1SZ vmcoreinfo entry entry is incorporated into the kernel.
