Sort of. Actually, I was thinking the dump driver could use "palo_kernel"
global to save off the file name of the vmlinux which crashed.
setup_cmdline could parse/squirrel away the palo_kernel parameter.

Isn't /vmlinux a symlink to /boot/vmlinux?
ie the file palo loaded is whatever the symlink points to.

BTW, I explicitly specify /boot/vmlinux in my palo.conf files
and see 3/boot/vmlinux in my palo command line.
