Alexey Dobriyan 86a2bb5ad8 coredump: fix spam with zero VMA process
Nobody ever tried to self destruct by unmapping whole address space at
once:

	munmap((void *)0, (1ULL << 47) - 4096);

Doing this produces 2 warnings for zero-length vmalloc allocations:

  a.out[1353]: segfault at 7f80bcc4b757 ip 00007f80bcc4b757 sp 00007fff683939b8 error 14
  a.out: vmalloc: allocation failure: 0 bytes, mode:0xcc0(GFP_KERNEL), nodemask=(null)
	...
  a.out: vmalloc: allocation failure: 0 bytes, mode:0xcc0(GFP_KERNEL), nodemask=(null)
	...

Fix is to switch to kvmalloc().

Steps to reproduce:

	// vsyscall=none
	#include <sys/mman.h>
	#include <sys/resource.h>
	int main(void)
	{
		setrlimit(RLIMIT_CORE, &(struct rlimit){RLIM_INFINITY, RLIM_INFINITY});
		munmap((void *)0, (1ULL << 47) - 4096);
		return 0;
	}

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
