Description of problem: The v7 kdump test only restarts kdump when it changes the configuration. Instead, it should restart the service ever test run, to be sure than any manual changes to the configuration are caught.
Created attachment 583840 [details] kdump test patch to restart kdump every test run. This patch also logs variables set in /etc/kdump.conf
