Now the patch log correctly reflects the code change, even though the
log is a little redundant. While it's far far better than a wrong log
which will definitely confuse, even mislead people. I would go with:

======
kernel/crash_core.c : remove redundant check of ck_cmdline

At the end of get_last_crashkernel(), the judgement of ck_cmdline is
obviously unnecessary and causes redundance, let's clean it up.
======

And the patch version is missing. If you agree on the above log
rephrasing, please post v4 with the updated log, and can add my ack:
