68c3828210 Add "/lib/modules/<version>/build" to the list of directories that
are searched for the currently-running kernel on live systems.  This
will automatically locate the vmlinux namelist for kernels that were
locally installed with "make modules_install install".

de3daee5ee Fix to recognize that the live system "crash.ko" memory driver may
be compressed and named "crash.ko.xz".  Without the patch, the driver
is not recognized and loaded, and as a result the /dev/mem driver
and/or /proc/kcore will be tried as the live memory source.

77e9ca1305 Document the reason behind the deprecation of the "mount -f" option
for Linux 3.13 and later kernels if the option is attempted, and in
the "help mount" output, similar to the deprecated "mount -d" option.

5094787767 Deprecate the "mount -f" option for Linux 3.13 and later kernels
containing commit eee5cc2702929fd41cce28058dc6d6717f723f87, which
removed the super_block.s_files list_head member and the open files
list that it contained.  Without the patch, the command option fails
with the error message "mount: invalid structure member offset:
super_block_s_files"
