In get_crash_memory_ranges(), if crash_exclude_mem_range() failed
after realloc_mem_ranges() has successfully allocated the cmem
memory, it just returns an error but leaves cmem pointing to
the allocated memory, nor is it freed in the caller
update_crash_elfcorehdr(), which cause a memory leak, goto out
to free the cmem.
