x86: crash_dump: Fix non-pae kdump kernel memory accesses
Non-PAE 32-bit dump kernels may wrap an address around 4G and
poke unwanted space. ptes there are 32-bit long, and since
pfn << PAGE_SIZE may exceed this limit, high pfn bits are
cropped and wrong address mapped by kmap_atomic_pfn in
copy_oldmem_page.
Don't allow this behavior in non-PAE kdump kernels by checking
pfns passed into copy_oldmem_page. In the case of failure,
userspace process gets EFAULT.
[v2]
- fix comments
- move ifdefs inside the function
