It does also improve makedumpfile filtering of pages. [Impact] Kernel crashes cannot be analysed with the crash tool. [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 [Regression] None expected as those modifications are part of the Zesty and upstream version.
