Yep!
Thank you too Ed!

Reason I need this is because while my laptop had no problem
rebooting and restoring from hibernate while using kernel 3.15.x
It now panics when rebooting after a hibernate.
kernels 16.x started the panics.
I have no means of examining the stack as it flies off the top of the 
screen.
So, with my camera, I can only photograph whatever remains on the screen.
Guess, I have to install a debug kernel to drop me into the debugger or
better yet, to dump the full stack and the kernel memory image to disk
for subsequent examination.
