[PATCH Makedumpfile 02/10] read_vmcoreinfo_long: Allow to read hex values as well

[Pratyush Anand]

Kernel can also write a hex value in NUMBER(X) string, for example:
vmcoreinfo_append_str("NUMBER(PHYS_OFFSET)=0x%llx\n",PHYS_OFFSET);

Therefore, allow read_vmcoreinfo_long() to read 'base 16' values if, 'base
10' read resulted in a read of invalid character.
