Subject: [Crash-utility] [PATCH v2] Replace lseek/read into pread for
        kcore and vmcore reading.

Previously crash use lseek/read for kcore and vmcore reading, this involves 2
syscalls. And we can replace them with pread, only 1 syscall is needed for
kcore/vmcore reading, and we can have a better performance. Please note there
are plenty of places in crash using lseek/read, this patch doesn't modify all
of them, just the most commonly used kcore and diskdump vmcore reading.

v1 -> v2: add offset check before pread.

Thank you for the update, Tao.

The v2 is expected. So: Ack

Thanks.
