[PATCH v2 17/20] vmcore: check if vmcore objects satify mmap()'s page-size boundary requirement

[HATAYAMA Daisuke <d.hatayama@jp.fujitsu.com>]

If there's some vmcore object that doesn't satisfy page-size boundary
requirement, remap_pfn_range() fails to remap it to user-space.

Objects that posisbly don't satisfy the requirement are ELF note
segments only. The memory chunks corresponding to PT_LOAD entries are
guaranteed to satisfy page-size boundary requirement by the copy from
old memory to buffer in 2nd kernel done in later patch.
