[PATCH 02/13] vmcore: round up buffer size of ELF headers by PAGE_SIZE

To satisfy mmap() page-size boundary requirement, reound up buffer
size of ELF headers by PAGE_SIZE. The resulting value becomes offset
of ELF note segments and it's assigned in unique PT_NOTE program
header entry.

Also, some part that assumes past ELF headers' size is replaced by
this new rounded-up value.
