Hrm.. I sure don't remember that ever being moved intentionally. It
seems to have come in around the 2.6.15 time frame, and it looks like
it might have moved up because of patch fuzz then latter when a patch
broke and had to be merged by hand ended up a few lines higher. 

That's pretty much my guess after looking at old patches. In any case
I'm assuming you want kdump to fire before the notifier_call_chain. I
don't have a problem removing it from the patches and leaving it where
it should be. 

Unless anyone else specifically remembers moving it for a reason,
Jason that means you :-).
