[PATCH] check for invalid physical address of /proc/kcore when making ELF dumpfile
Previously when executing makedumpfile with -E option against
/proc/kcore, makedumpfile will fail:
# makedumpfile -E -d 31 /proc/kcore kcore.dump
...
write_elf_load_segment: Can't convert physaddr(ffffffffffffffff) to an offset.
makedumpfile Failed.
It's because /proc/kcore contains PT_LOAD program headers which have
physaddr (0xffffffffffffffff). With -E option, makedumpfile will
try to convert the physaddr to an offset and fails.
Skip the PT_LOAD program headers which have such physaddr.
