    coredump: fix crash when umh is disabled · 3740d93e
    Luis Chamberlain authored
    Commit 64e90a8a ("Introduce STATIC_USERMODEHELPER to mediate
    call_usermodehelper()") added the optiont to disable all
    call_usermodehelper() calls by setting STATIC_USERMODEHELPER_PATH to
    an empty string. When this is done, and crashdump is triggered, it
    will crash on null pointer dereference, since we make assumptions
    over what call_usermodehelper_exec() did.
    
    This has been reported by Sergey when one triggers a a coredump
    with the following configuration:
    
    ```
    CONFIG_STATIC_USERMODEHELPER=y
    CONFIG_STATIC_USERMODEHELPER_PATH=""
    kernel.core_pattern = |/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %P %u %g %s %t %c %h %e
    ```
    
    The way disabling the umh was designed was that call_usermodehelper_exec()
    would just return early, without an error. But coredump assumes
    certain variables are set up for us when this happens, and calls
    ile_start_write(cprm.file) with a NULL file.
