Bug description:
  [Impact]
  When using Ubuntu to debug 4.0 kernels, crash fails with something as follows:
  WARNING: kernels compiled by different gcc versions:
    vmlinux-4.0.0-rc7: (unknown)
    dump.201504151428 kernel: 4.9.1

  WARNING: kernel version inconsistency between vmlinux and dumpfile

  crash: incompatible arguments: 
     vmlinux-4.0.0-rc7 is not SMP -- dump.201504151428 is SMP

  [Test Case]
  Try to use crash with a 4.0+ kernel crash.
  This should work.
