Lianbo Jiang cd7264705d Doc: improve mkdumprd man page
Currently, when generating a kdump initramfs, mkdumprd will determine
how much disk space is available, if the dump target's available space
is not greater than the total system memory, mkdumprd will print a
warning to remind that there might not be enough space to save a vmcore.

Some users are complaining that mkdumprd overestimates the needed size.
But actually, the warning covers extreme scenarios such as the slab
explodes with non-zero data or a full vmcore, etc. Therefore, need to
prevent users from having minimum disk space for crash dump.

In view of this, add some descriptions to clarify it in mkdumprd man
page.
