- Update to 4.0-7.5
  o Fix for "kmem -i" and "kmem -p" on 2.6.26 x86 CONFIG_SPARSEMEM
    PAE kernels to account for the change in value of
    SECTION_SIZE_BITS.
  o Fix for "bt -[tT]" options on x86 architectures when the
    backtrace starts on the hard IRQ stack.
  o Fix for the "bt" command when run on a xen hypervisor in which
    the backtrace leads to either "process_softirqs" or
    "page_fault".  
  o Fix for the "kmem -[sS]" options that could cause a
    segmentation violation or bogus "bad slab pointer" and "bad
    inuse counter" error  messages.
  o Fix for a bug in the SIAL extension when dealing with
    bitfields.
  o Fix for the "files" command when run on 2.6.25 and later
    kernels,  which would either fail with an "invalid kernel
    virtual address" error of type "fill_dentry_cache", or would
    show nonsensical/garbage "ROOT" and "CWD" pathnames.
  o Addition of a new "null-stop" environment variable that can be
    turned on/off with the "set" command.
  o Fix for the builtin "g" alias, which would fail with an
    "Ambiguous command" error from the embedded gdb module.  
  o Fix to handle the 2.6.27 kernel's change of the module
    structure's num_symtab, core_size and core_text_size members
    from long to int.
  o Implement support for the /dev/crash driver being built into
    x86 or x86_64 Red Hat kernels with the restricted /dev/mem
    driver.
  o If the /dev/crash driver module has been loaded prior to a live
    crash session, then it will not be unloaded when the crash
    session exits.
  o Fix to recognize the 2.6.25 re-naming of the x86
    user_regs_struct structure members.
  o Fix for initialization-time failure when running against 2.6.27
    x86_64 xen kernels, which indicate "crash: cannot resolve:
    end_pfn".
  o Fix for initialization-time failure when running against Xen
    4.4  hypervisor binaries, which indicate "crash: invalid
    structure member offset: domain_is_polling".
  o Added a new "p -u" option, which indicates that the gdb
    expression argument evaluates to a user virtual address in the
    current context.
  o Fix for "bt -a" command when running against the xen hypervisor
    where the number of physical cpus outnumber the MAX_VIRT_CPUS
    value for the processor type.
  o Fix for the display of the processor speed on IBM Power6
    hardware.
