Before the memory for the elfcorehdr is allocated the required size is
estimated with
alloc_size = 0x1000 + get_cpu_cnt() * 0x4a0 +
mem_chunk_cnt * sizeof(Elf64_Phdr);
Where 0x4a0 is used as size for the ELF notes to store the register
contend. This size is 8 bytes too small. Usually this does not immediately
cause a problem because the page reserved for overhead (Elf_Ehdr,
vmcoreinfo, etc.) is pretty generous. So usually there is enough spare
memory to counter the mis-calculated per cpu size. However, with growing
overhead and/or a huge cpu count the allocated size gets too small for the
elfcorehdr. Ultimately a BUG_ON is triggered causing the crash kernel to
panic.
Fix this by properly calculating the required size instead of relying on
magic numbers.
