[PATCH 1/2] makedumpfile: omit unnecessary calls to print_progress

[Philipp Rudo <prudo@redhat.com>]

Check first if a page is dumpable before printing the process. Otherwise
there is the chance that num_dumped % per == 0 at the beginning of the
block of undampable pages. In that case num_dumped isn't updated before
the next dumpable page and thus print_process is called for every page
in that block.

This is especially annoying when the block is after the last dumpable
page and thus num_dumped == info->num_dumpable. In that case
print_process will bypass its check to only print the process once every
second and thus flood the console with unnecessary prints. This can lead
to a severe decrease in performance especially when the console is in
line mode.
