kdump: add vmlist.addr to vmcoreinfo for x86 vmalloc translation.
Add the symbols 'vmlist' and offset 'vm_struct.addr' to the vmcoreinfo[1] data for i386 vmalloc translation. makedumpfile[2] needs VMALLOC_START value for distinguishing a vmalloc address or not, because it should choose suitable translation method. If applying this patch, makedumpfile will be able to take VMALLOC_START value from 'vmlist.addr'. vmcoreinfo[1]: The vmcoreinfo data has the minimum debugging information only for dump filtering. makedumpfile[2] uses it to distinguish unnecessary pages and creates a small dumpfile. makedumpfile[2]: dump filtering command https://sourceforge.net/projects/makedumpfile/ Signed-off-by: Ken'ichi Ohmichi <oomichi@mxs.nes.nec.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
