[PATCH v2 2/7] arm64: kdump: add elf core header segment

[AKASHI Takahiro]

Elf core header contains the information necessary for the coredump of
the 1st kernel, including its physcal memory layout as well as cpu register
states at the panic.
The segment is allocated inside the reserved memory of crash dump kernel.
