Some more info :
- I recompiled a kernel with #define ATA_R_DEBUG 0x10000fff in ata-all.h
in order to find if the kernel was stuck on an ata operation when
dumping.
  When calling "doadump" with ATA_R_DEBUG there was constant activity
(but can't remind well because it was scrolling too fast) and I can even
cancel the dump,
- Retrying "call doadump" under a kernel without touching ATA_R_DEBUG,
it worked eventually once and could be canceled. Most of the time, dump
can't be canceled and doesn't progress.

Should I open a PR so that the issue can be tracked ?

Anthony.
