[PATCH v2 01/20] vmcore: refer to e_phoff member explicitly

Code around /proc/vmcore currently assumes program header table is
next to ELF header. But future change can break the assumption on
kexec-tools and the 1st kernel. To avoid worst case, now refer to
e_phoff member that indicates position of program header table in
file-offset.
