FEDORA-2023-93fab3be92 created by coiby 12 months ago for Fedora 39

Only try to reset crashkernel when kdump.service is enabled

Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2243068

Currently, when kexec-tools is installed, the kernel will automatically have the crashkernel parameter set up. In the case where users only want the kexec reboot feature, this is not what users want as a 1G-RAM system will lose 192M memory. Considering Fedora's systemd preset policy has kdump.service disabled and RHEL' has kdump.service enabled, this patch makes kexec-tools only reset crashkernel when kdump.service is enabled.

I have tried to update this package in the Live system and after the installation the crashkernel parameter is not present at the grub cmdline and systemctl status kdump.service says it is disabled.

tested this works as expected, running test kernel installs on a workstation system with and without kdump.service enabled.
