If any change happened in the configuration of VF in VM while
collecting live dump, there could be a race and firmware can return
more data than allocated dump length. Fix it by keeping track of
the accumulated core dump length copied so far and abort the copy
with error code if the next chunk of core dump will exceed the
original dump length.

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.
