Hmm.., so we are rounding up ELF note data size too here. I think this belongs
in some other patch as in this patch we are just rounding up the elf
headers.
This might create read problems too as we have not taking care of this
rounding when adding note to vc_list and it might happen that we are
reading wrong data at a particular offset.
So may be this rounding up we should do in later patches when we take
care of copying ELF notes data to second kernel.
