Greg Pearson 38dfac843c vmcore: prevent PT_NOTE p_memsz overflow during header update 
Currently, update_note_header_size_elf64() and
update_note_header_size_elf32() will add the size of a PT_NOTE entry to
real_sz even if that causes real_sz to exceeds max_sz.  This patch
corrects the while loop logic in those routines to ensure that does not
happen and prints a warning if a PT_NOTE entry is dropped.  If zero
PT_NOTE entries are found or this condition is encountered because the
only entry was dropped, a warning is printed and an error is returned.

One possible negative side effect of exceeding the max_sz limit is an
allocation failure in merge_note_headers_elf64() or
merge_note_headers_elf32() which would produce console output such as
the following while booting the crash kernel.

  vmalloc: allocation failure: 14076997632 bytes

  Cannot open /proc/vmcore: No such file or directory
  kdump: saving vmcore-dmesg.txt failed
  kdump: saving vmcore
  kdump: saving vmcore failed

This type of failure has been seen on a four socket prototype system
with certain memory configurations.  Most PT_NOTE sections have a single
entry similar to:

  n_namesz = 0x5
  n_descsz = 0x150
  n_type   = 0x1

Occasionally, a second entry is encountered with very large n_namesz and
n_descsz sizes:

  n_namesz = 0x80000008
  n_descsz = 0x510ae163
  n_type   = 0x80000008

Not yet sure of the source of these extra entries, they seem bogus, but
they shouldn't cause crash dump to fail.
