Please give it a shot.
Getting rid of explicit kernel version checks would be wonderful and
prevent future problems as

Hello all,
I am using the 4.9 long term kernel which is currently at 4.9.262.
When using this kernel with kexec-tools it prints out this error
Unsupported utsname.release: 4.9.262
Cannot load
A quick search in the code shows that kexec/kernel_version.c doing this check:
if (major >= 256
