Some options/considerations to address this (need input from the kernel team),
given there might be impact to (other) userspace tools:
1) Make `linux_banner` like `linux_proc_banner`, i.e., append version
signature.
Fixes this issue; expands regression potential to other userspace
tools.)
Perhaps this impacts the goal of the patch?
And there's warning quotes on the source, for not doing this. [2]
2) Revert `linux_proc_banner` not to have version signature.
Fixes this issue; reduces regression potential on other userspace tools.
3) Patch `crash` to deal with this
FFixes this isse; keeps regression potential on other userspace tools.
