[v3 0/3] Introduce struct cycle to store cyclic region and clean up

v1->v2:
    In first_cycle(), start_pfn assignation is not aligned to info->pfn_cyclic.
    Now in v2 change this. Accordingly the pfn in write_elf_header() and
    write_elf_pages_cyclic() need be adjusted to the real beginning of a
    load segment, but not the cycle->start_pfn which may be lower after alignment.

v2->v3:
    Astushi and HATAYAMA found removing the pfn check in set_bitmap_cyclic will
introduce bugs. So it's better to add the pfn checking back, though there's
a little influence on perforcemance.

  makedumpfile: introduce struct cycle to store the cyclic region
  makedumpfile: use struct cycle to update cyclic region and clean up
  makedumpfile: remove member variables representing cyclic pfn region
    in struct DumpInfo
