commit 95c5436a4883841588dae86fb0b9325f47ba5ad3 upstream. Move the call of dump_vma_snapshot and kvfree(vma_meta) out of the individual coredump routines into do_coredump itself. This makes the code less error prone and easier to maintain. Make the vma snapshot available to the coredump routines in struct coredump_params. This makes it easier to change and update what is captures in the vma snapshot and will be needed for fixing fill_file_notes.

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.
