nvdimm,pmem: makedumpfile: __vtop4_x86_64: Can't get a valid pte.

Hi folks,

I'm going to make crash coredump support pmem region. So
I have modified kexec-tools to add pmem region to PT_LOAD of vmcore.

But it failed at makedumpfile, log are as following:

In my environment, i found the last 512 pages in pmem region will cause the error.

qemu commandline:
  -object memory-backend-file,id=memnvdimm0,prealloc=yes,mem-path=/root/qemu-dax.img,share=yes,size=4267704320,align=2097152

makedumpfile info:
[   57.229110] kdump.sh[240]: mem_map[  71] ffffea0008e00000           238000           23e200


Firstly, i wonder that
1) makedumpfile read the whole range of iomem(same with the PT_LOAD of pmem)
2) 1st kernel side only setup mem_map(vmemmap) for this namespace, which size is 512 pages smaller than iomem for some reasons.
3) Since there is an align in nvdimm region(16MiB in above), i also guess the maximum size of the pmem can used by user should
be ALIGN(iomem, 10MiB), after this alignment, the last 512 pages will be dropped. then kernel only setups vmemmap for this
range. but i didn't see any code doing such things in kernel side.

So if you guy know the reasons, please let me know :), any hint/feedback is very welcome.
