  [SRU justification]
  This fix is required to make the crash tool usable. It does also improve 
makedumpfile filtering of pages.

  [Impact]
  Kernel crashes cannot be analysed with the crash tool.
  makedumpfile incorrectly filter pages.

  [Fix]
  Cherry-pick upstream commits fixing those issues.

  [Test Case]
  Running crash tool on a kernel crash file will display something like :

  # crash -s usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic
  crash: read error: kernel virtual address: 81e29ff0  type: 
"pv_init_ops"
  crash: this kernel may be configured with CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM, which
     renders /dev/mem unusable as a live memory source.
  crash: trying /proc/kcore as an alternative to /dev/mem

  crash: seek error: kernel virtual address: 81e29ff0  type: 
"pv_init_ops"
  crash: seek error: kernel virtual address: 82166130  type: 
"shadow_timekeeper xtime_sec"
  crash: seek error: kernel virtual address: 81e0d304  type: 
"init_uts_ns"
  crash: usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic and 
/var/crash/201701191308/dump.201701191308 do not match!

  With the fix, the crash command will work as expected

  Running the crash tool on a vmcore file produced by makedumpfile may
  return :

  crash: page excluded: kernel virtual address: <> type:
  "fill_task_struct"

  [Regression]
  None expected as those modifications are part of the Zesty and upstream 
version.

  The makedumpfile patches are in Yakkety and Zesty 1.6.0 & after

  [Original description of the problem]
  vmcore captured by kdump cannot be opened with crash:

  % sudo crash -d1 /usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic 
/var/crash/201612282137/dump.201612282137

  crash: /usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4 and 
/var/crash/201612282137/dump.201612282137 do not match!

  Usage:

    crash [OPTION]... NAMELIST MEMORY-IMAGE[@ADDRESS] (dumpfile form)
    crash [OPTION]... [NAMELIST]  (live system form)

  Enter "crash -h" for details.

  Looks like the 'linux_banner' cannot be understood by crash.

  And when the vmcore was dumping, this message being showed:

  [  729.609196] kdump-tools[5192]: The kernel version is not supported.
  [  729.609447] kdump-tools[5192]: The makedumpfile operation may be

makedumpfile (1:1.5.9-5ubuntu0.4) xenial; urgency=medium

  * d/p/0006-PATCH-Support-newer-kernels.patch :
Support kernel versions up to 4.8 (LP: #1557751)
  * Turn hardcoded timeo and retrans NFS options into parameters that
can be modified in /etc/default/kdump-tools. Also use the NFS defaults
(timeo=600, retrans=3) for these parameters. Make those values visible
in the 'show' command if NFS is configured (LP: #1641235)
  * Complete support for kernel versions 4.8 and later :
d/p/0007-PATCH-Looking-for-page.compound_order-compound_dtor-.patch,

  ISST-LTE:pVM:roselp4:ubuntu 16.04.2: vmcore cannot be analysed by
  crash

Status in makedumpfile source package in Xenial:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  [SRU justification]
  This fix is required to make the crash tool usable. It does also improve 
makedumpfile filtering of pages.

  [Impact]
  Kernel crashes cannot be analysed with the crash tool.
  makedumpfile incorrectly filter pages.

  [Fix]
  Cherry-pick upstream commits fixing those issues.

  [Test Case]
  Running crash tool on a kernel crash file will display something like :

  # crash -s usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic
  crash: read error: kernel virtual address: 81e29ff0  type: 
"pv_init_ops"
  crash: this kernel may be configured with CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM, which
     renders /dev/mem unusable as a live memory source.
  crash: trying /proc/kcore as an alternative to /dev/mem

  crash: seek error: kernel virtual address: 81e29ff0  type: 
"pv_init_ops"
  crash: seek error: kernel virtual address: 82166130  type: 
"shadow_timekeeper xtime_sec"
  crash: seek error: kernel virtual address: 81e0d304  type: 
"init_uts_ns"
  crash: usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic and 
/var/crash/201701191308/dump.201701191308 do not match!

  With the fix, the crash command will work as expected

  Running the crash tool on a vmcore file produced by makedumpfile may
  return :

  crash: page excluded: kernel virtual address: <> type:
  "fill_task_struct"

  [Regression]
  None expected as those modifications are part of the Zesty and upstream 
version.

  The makedumpfile patches are in Yakkety and Zesty 1.6.0 & after

  [Original description of the problem]
  vmcore captured by kdump cannot be opened with crash:

  % sudo crash -d1 /usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4.8.0-34-generic 
/var/crash/201612282137/dump.201612282137
  ... ...

  linux_banner:
  
  crash: /usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-4 and 
/var/crash/201612282137/dump.201612282137 do not match!

  Usage:

    crash [OPTION]... NAMELIST MEMORY-IMAGE[@ADDRESS] (dumpfile form)
    crash [OPTION]... [NAMELIST]  (live system form)

  Enter "crash -h" for details.

  Looks like the 'linux_banner' cannot be understood by crash.

  And when the vmcore was dumping, this message being showed:

  [  729.609196] kdump-tools[5192]: The kernel version is not supported.
  [  729.609447] kdump-tools[5192]: The makedumpfile operation may be
