[PATCH V10] devcoredump: add context check in dev_coredumpm

[Duoming Zhou]

The dev_coredumpm(), dev_coredumpv() and dev_coredumpsg() could not
be used in atomic context, because they call kvasprintf_const() and
kstrdup() with GFP_KERNEL parameter. The process is shown below:

dev_coredumpv(.., gfp_t gfp)
  dev_coredumpm(.., gfp_t gfp)
    dev_set_name
      kobject_set_name_vargs
        kvasprintf_const(GFP_KERNEL, ...); //may sleep
          kstrdup(s, GFP_KERNEL); //may sleep

This patch adds context check in dev_coredumpm() in order to show
dev_coredumpm() and its callers could not be used in atomic context.

What's more, this change can allow the api to evolve and will not
influence the users that call this api.
