This patch set fixes regression of mmap on /proc/vmcore since
v3.12-rc1. The primary one is the 2nd patch. The 1st patch is another
bug I found during investiation and it affects mmap on /proc/vmcore
even if only 2nd patch is applied, so fix it together in this patch
set. The last patch is just for cleaning up of target function in both
1st and 2nd patches.
