The current implementation reports the structure name as
VMCOREINFO_OSRELEASE in VMCOREINFO, e.g.
VMCOREINFO_OSRELEASE=init_uts_ns.name.release
That doesn't make sense because it's always the same. Instead, use the
value, e.g.
VMCOREINFO_OSRELEASE=2.6.26-rc3
That's also what the 'makedumpfile -g' does.
