Virtual addresses of vmcore_info and os_info members are wrongly passed to copy_oldmem_kernel(), while the function expects physical address of the source. Instead, __pa() macro should have been applied. Yet, use of __pa() macro could be somehow confusing, since copy_oldmem_kernel() may treat the source as an offset, not as a direct physical address (that depens from the oldmem availability and location). Fix the virtual vs physical address confusion and make the way the old lowcore is read consistent across all sources.

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.
