Subject[RHEL6.8 Patch 12/19] vmcore: allow user process to remap ELF note segment buffer
Date
Resolves: bz1097904
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1097904

This is back ported from upstream.

commit ef9e78fd2753213ea01d77f7a76a9cb6ad0f50a7
Author: HATAYAMA Daisuke <d.hatayama@jp.fujitsu.com>

vmcore: allow user process to remap ELF note segment buffer

Now ELF note segment has been copied in the buffer on vmalloc memory.
To allow user process to remap the ELF note segment buffer with
remap_vmalloc_page, the corresponding VM area object has to have
VM_USERMAP flag set.
