calculating phys_base and the mapped kernel offset for KASLR-enabled
kernels on SADUMP dumpfiles by using a technique developed by Takao
Indoh. Originally, the patchset included support for kdumps, but this
was dropped in v2, as it was deemed unnecessary due to the upstream
implementation of the "vmcoreinfo device" in QEMU. However, there
are still several reasons for which the vmcoreinfo device may not be
present at the time when a memory dump is taken from a VM, ranging
from a host running older QEMU/libvirt versions, to misconfigured VMs
or environments running Hypervisors that doesn't support this device.
This patchset generalizes the KASLR-related functions from sadump.c
and moves them to kaslr_helper.c, and makes kdump analysis fall back
to KASLR offset calculation if vmcoreinfo data is missing.
