+ * reading the vmcore. Will return "true" if it is RAM or if the
+ * callback cannot tell. If any callback returns "false", it's not
+ * RAM and the page must not be accessed; zeroes should be
+ * indicated in the vmcore instead. For example, a ballooned page
+ * contains no data and reading from such a page will cause high
+ * load in the hypervisor.

+ * vmcore callbacks allow drivers managing physical memory ranges to

+ * physical memory ranges that should not be accessed when reading the vmcore,
+ * although included in the vmcore header as memory ranges to dump.
