As for v4.16-rc1, crash for arm64 fails to analyze the core dump,
with a message: cannot determine page size.
There seems to be a couple of reasons for this:
[1] splits a 64-bit field of image header, _kernel_flags_le, into two
32-bit values and in turn they have got a bit different names.
[2] and more recent [3] can possibly add extra space between idmap_pg_dir
and swapper_pg_dir.
This patch addresses both of changes.
[1] commit 6ad1fe5d9077 ("arm64: avoid R_AARCH64_ABS64 relocations for
Image header fields")
[2] commit 1e1b8c04fa34 ("arm64: entry: Move the trampoline to be before PAN")
[3] commit 4b65a5db3627 ("arm64: Introduce uaccess_{disable,enable}
functionality based on TTBR0_EL1")
