Subject: ARM: 8012/1: kdump: Avoid overflow when converting pfn to physaddr

From: Liu Hua <sdu.liu@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8fad87bca7ac9737e413ba5f1656f1114a8c314d upstream.

When we configure CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y, pfn << PAGE_SHIFT will
overflow if pfn >= 0x100000 in copy_oldmem_page.
So use __pfn_to_phys for converting.
