The crash changelog refers to a fix for that quite some time ago: 4.0-2.31 - Bumped crash-internal NR_CPUS for x86 and ia64; added a warning message to "recompile crash" and forced an initialization failure when the kernel's configured NR_CPUS is greater than the maximum allowed NR_CPUS value compiled into crash. (maneesh(a)in.ibm.com, anderson(a)redhat.com) - Fix for initialization failure indicating a kernel/memory-source mismatch when x86 kernel configures its physical memory start address higher than the traditional 1MB starting point. (anderson(a)redhat.com) - Fix for kernels that have replaced the "system_utsname" data structure with contents of the "init_uts_ns" data structure. This fixes a "crash: cannot resolve system_utsname" initialization failure.
