pjd cb36b2a5c4 Add missing privilege check when setting the dump device. Before that change it
was possible for a regular user to setup the dump device if he had write access
to the given device. In theory it is a security issue as user might get access
to kernel's memory after provoking kernel crash, but in practise it is not
recommended to give regular users direct access to storage devices.

Rework the code so that we do privileges check within the set_dumper() function
to avoid similar problems in the future.
