On kernels v5.8 or later, makedumpfile fails for memory dumps in the sadump-related formats as follows: # makedumpfile -f -l -d 31 -x ./vmlinux /dev/sdd4 /root/vmcore-ld31 __vtop4_x86_64: Can't get a valid pud_pte. ...110 lines of the same message... __vtop4_x86_64: Can't get a valid pud_pte. calc_kaslr_offset: failed to calculate kaslr_offset and phys_base; default to 0 readmem: type_addr: 1, addr:ffffffff85411858, size:8 __vtop4_x86_64: Can't get pgd (page_dir:ffffffff85411858). readmem: Can't convert a virtual address(ffffffff059be980) to physical address. readmem: type_addr: 0, addr:ffffffff059be980, size:1024 cpu_online_mask_init: Can't read cpu_online_mask memory. makedumpfile Failed. This is caused by the kernel commit 9d06c4027f21 ("x86/entry: Convert Divide Error to IDTENTRY") that renamed divide_error to asm_exc_divide_error, breaking logic for calculating kaslr offset. Fix this by adding initialization of asm_exc_divide_error.
