  ---Problem Description---
  kdump-tools uses the wrong crashkernel command line parameter in ppc64le:

  u1704le?? grep crashkernel /boot/grub/grub.cfg
                  linux   /boot/vmlinux-4.10.0-13-generic 
root=UUID=2d6f73c7-b463-4f02-9ec4-8d4afed0635d ro   crashkernel=384M-:128M

  128M of reserved memory is too small for ppc64le.

  That happens because /etc/default/grub.d/kdump-tools.cfg links to the
  wrong file:

  u1704le??  ls -l /etc/default/grub.d/
  total 8.0K
  lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  39 Mar 24 13:34 kdump-tools.cfg -> 
/etc/default/grub.d/kdump-tools.default
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root  80 Jan  5 08:07 kdump-tools.default
  -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 137 Jan  5 08:07 kdump-tools..ppc64el
  u1704le?? 

  As can be seen, it should be pointing to kdump-tools..ppc64el but
  isn't.

  Also, kdump-tools..ppc64el has two dots in it. That doesn't seem right.
  Possibly just a cosmetic issue, but it would be nice if that was fixed.
