I suspect the version string is comparable in size to the pointer to the
version string and as such would be a better candidate to include in the
handful of elf notes we provide for the mkdumpfile & it's ilk to bootstram.

I assume getting the kernel's version string will be enough to track
back to an individual vmlinux and figure out the layout of everything
else.
