This occured since getting the vmalloc area base address doesn't work in
crash now, due to 'vmap_area_list' being removed in the linux kernel with
below commit (in linux-next tree):

     commit 378eb24a0658dd922b29524e0ce35c6c43f56cba
          mm/vmalloc: remove vmap_area_list

As an alternative, the commit introduced 'VMALLOC_START' in vmcoreinfo to
get base address of vmalloc area, use it to return vmallow start address
instead of depending on vmap_area_list and vmlist


LGTM.
