[PATCH 1/2] cleanup: move it back from util_lib/elf_info.c
Some code related to vmcore-dmesg.c is put into the util_lib, which
is not very reasonable, so lets move it back and tidy up those code.
    
In addition, that will also help to limit the size of vmcore-dmesg.txt.

[PATCH 2/2] Limit the size of vmcore-dmesg.txt to 2G
With some corrupted vmcore files, the vmcore-dmesg.txt file may
grow forever till the kdump disk becomes full. Lets limit the
size of vmcore-dmesg.txt to avoid such problems.

BTW: I tested this patch on x86 64 and arm64, it also worked well.
