Add a common feature for architectures to retrieve AX_PHYSMEM_BITS
from vmcoreinfo, which was added by kernel commit 1d50e5d0c505 ("
crash_core, vmcoreinfo: Append 'MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS' to vmcoreinfo").
This makes makedumpfile adaptable for future MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS changes.
Also ensure backward compatibility for kernel versions in which
MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS is not available in vmcoreinfo.
