Patch adds support for LoongArch64 in makedumpfile. It takes care of
vmalloc, module and directly map kernel memory region's translation.
Currently we only support 3 leverl 16K pages and VA_BITS as 48.
The changes were tested on a LoongArch64 Loongson-3A5000 processor.

This patch adds support for loading the ELF kernel image. It parses

This patch was firstly developed by Nick Kossifidis, and two fixes (
1: fail to find free memory area
