This routine provides a means to tune the size of the elfcorehdr
buffer segment, taking into account the --hotplug and
--elfcorehdrsz options. The possibilities are:
no --elfcorehdrsz w/ --elfcorehdrsz
no --hotplug just-large-enough user-specified
w/ --hotplug maximum-size user-specified
Where just-large-enough is the min_size parameter, computed based
upon the existing CPUs and memory regions in the system.
Where maximum-size is computed based upon the maximum number of
CPUs and memory regions possible in the system.
