Subject[Patch 18/21] Generate the data sections for ELF Core
Generate the "data" for the memory regions. Also write down the section header 
if we have, number of phdrs > PN_XNUM.

The vma areas are read, page by page using access_process_vm() without an
mmap_sem. If there are active threads, then we may miss a vma if it is removed
while we are doing the read.
