[PATCH] Increase SECTION_MAP_LAST_BIT to 5
* Required for kernel 5.12
Kernel commit 1f90a3477df3 ("mm: teach pfn_to_online_page() about
ZONE_DEVICE section collisions") added a section flag
(SECTION_TAINT_ZONE_DEVICE) and causes makedumpfile an error on
some machines like this:
__vtop4_x86_64: Can't get a valid pmd_pte.
readmem: Can't convert a virtual address(ffffe2bdc2000000) to physical address.
readmem: type_addr: 0, addr:ffffe2bdc2000000, size:32768
__exclude_unnecessary_pages: Can't read the buffer of struct page.
create_2nd_bitmap: Can't exclude unnecessary pages.
Increase SECTION_MAP_LAST_BIT to 5 to fix this. The bit had not
been used until the change, so we can just increase the value.
