The ppos points to a position in the old kernel memory (and in case of arm64 in the crash kernel since elfcorehdr is passed as a segment). The function should update the ppos by the amount that was read. This bug is not exposed by accident, but other platforms update this value properly. So, fix it in ARM64 version of elfcorehdr_read() as well.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
