[RFC PATCH v1 3/3] vmcore: read vmcore through direct mapping region

[HATAYAMA Daisuke]

Now regions represented by vmcore are mapped through direct mapping
region. We reads requested memory through direct mapping region
instead of using ioremap.

Notice that we still keep read_from_oldmem that uses ioremap because
we need to use it when reading elf headers to make vmcore_list in
vmcore initialization.
