Subject[RFC][PATCH 4/6] kcore: kcore unify text range entry
From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com>

Some 64bit arch has a special segment for mapping kernel text. It should be
entried to /proc/kcore in addtion to direct-linear-map, vmalloc area.
This patch unifies KCORE_TEXT entry scattered under x86 and ia64.

I'm not familiar with other archs (mips has its own even after this patch)
If range of [_stext ..._end) is a valid area of text/data and it's not
in direct-map/vmalloc area, defining CONFIG_ARCH_PROC_KCORE_TEXT is only
a necessary thing to do for archs.

Note: I left mips-64 as it is now.
