[PATCH 0/3] makedumpfile: Fix handling of ELF segments with p_memsz > p_filesz

[ptesarik@xxxxxxx (Petr Tesarik)]

Hello Ivan & Atsushi,

after spending some time on this, I think I have a complete working
solution. I chose to rewrite readpage_elf from scratch. Unfortunately,
I'm unable to verify that it still works the same (sans bugs) because
of a regression in commit d18796d090623d18f46c8dc608dcad9960fbbe9b
(reported on the mailing list).

I was able to verify that --dump-dmesg works on a variety of weird ELF
files that I created manually (and the output hasn't changed). In my
opinion, this is enough to verify that the read routine works, but the
final decision is up to you.
