OK, got it..

May be we can take this patch and then it will be good to take Geoff's following patch.

http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/geoff/kexec-tools.git/commit/?id=0b18e1d9311e21d2a2f1392607eade138b9aefe7

With this patch we get something like this:
$ ./build/sbin/kexec -v
kexec version: 15.05.14.11.29-g4f6d8ec17529
kexec-tools 2.0.10.git released 27 August 2015

So, we have Date, Time and git shaid as well.
