[PATCH v4] not adding modules range to kcore if it's equal to vmcore range

[Baoquan He <bhe@redhat.com>]

On some ARCHs modules range is eauql to vmalloc range. E.g on i686
	"#define MODULES_VADDR   VMALLOC_START"
	"#define MODULES_END     VMALLOC_END"
This will cause 2 duplicate program segments in /proc/kcore, and no
any flag to indicate both of them are different. This is confusing.
And usually people who need check the elf header or read the content
of kcore will check memory ranges. Two program segments which are the
same completely are unnecessary.

So in this patch a judgment added to check if modules range is equal
to vmalloc range completely. If yes, just skip adding the modules
range.
