KASLR memory randomization can randomize the base of the physical memory
mapping (PAGE_OFFSET), vmalloc (VMALLOC_START) and vmemmap
(VMEMMAP_START). These need be exported to VMCOREINFO so that user space
utility, mainly makedumpfile can use them to identify the base of each
memory section. Here using VMCOREINFO_NUMBER we can reuse the existing
struct number_table in makedumpfile to import data easily.
Since they are related to x86_64 only, put them into
arch_crash_save_vmcoreinfo. And move the exportion of KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE
together since it's also for x86_64 only.
