John Ogness 5f6c7648e5 printk: kmsg_dumper: remove @active field
All 6 kmsg_dumpers do not benefit from the @active flag:

  (provide their own synchronization)
  - arch/powerpc/kernel/nvram_64.c
  - arch/um/kernel/kmsg_dump.c
  - drivers/mtd/mtdoops.c
  - fs/pstore/platform.c

  (only dump on KMSG_DUMP_PANIC, which does not require
  synchronization)
  - arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/opal-kmsg.c
  - drivers/hv/vmbus_drv.c

The other 2 kmsg_dump users also do not rely on @active:

  (hard-code @active to always be true)
  - arch/powerpc/xmon/xmon.c
  - kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_main.c

Therefore, @active can be removed.
