After applying the patch, there are two "j" defined.

251 static int __init merge_note_headers_elf64(char *elfptr, size_t *elfsz,
252                                                 struct list_head *vc_list)
253 {

255         Elf64_Ehdr *ehdr_ptr;
256         Elf64_Phdr phdr, *phdr_ptr;
257         Elf64_Nhdr *nhdr_ptr;
258         u64 phdr_sz = 0, note_off;
259 
260         ehdr_ptr = (Elf64_Ehdr *)elfptr;
261         phdr_ptr = (Elf64_Phdr*)(elfptr + ehdr_ptr->e_phoff);
262         for (i = 0; i < ehdr_ptr->e_phnum; i++, phdr_ptr++) {
263                 int j;
264                 void *notes_section;
265                 struct vmcore *new;


line 254 and 263.

is there any problem with this move? What is the batch bytes for every loop
of memmove? 

if i_ptnode == 2, so we have

-------------------------------------
| PT_LOAD 1 | PT_LOAD 2 | PT_NOTE 1 |
-------------------------------------

-->

-------------------------------------
|           | PT_LOAD 1 | PT_LOAD 2 |
-------------------------------------

right? In the move, Does PT_LOAD 1 overwrite the original PT_LOAD 2?
