[PATCH] kdump: enable CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE by default

Everybody seems to be using /proc/vmcore as a method to access the kernel
crash dump.  Hence probably it makes sense to enable CONFIG_PROC_VMCORE by
default if CONFIG_CRASH_DUMP is selected.  This makes kdump configuration
further easier for a user.
