Yes you are correct, the ELF_CORE_EFLAGS is not 0. But I tried the
code, checking is_elf2_task(), or test_thread_flag(...) is not as easy
as checking the header of vmlinux. Some processes with thread_flag
0x00, some seem correct, not sure why it occurs, so not a stable
approach to me. See the following:

crash> set -p
crash> task -x
PID: 1208     TASK: c0000000087f9800  CPU: 0    COMMAND: "bash"
struct task_struct {
  thread_info = {
...
    flags = 0x0
...

crash> set 1
crash> task -x
PID: 1        TASK: c000000003714b80  CPU: 2    COMMAND: "systemd"
struct task_struct {
  thread_info = {
    ...
    flags = 0x42000
...

I suggest using the vmlinux header check approach, see the comment in [1].
