SubjectRe: [PATCH v2] x86, kaslr: export offset in VMCOREINFO ELF notes
From
The purpose of this patch to make it easier for processing offline
kdump files for crash analysis. For context on the see this thread
for a patch in progress
(http://www.mail-archive.com/crash-utility@redhat.com/msg04640.html)

_stext doesn't quite work for this purpose because in my testing it
doesn't exactly match the kaslr offset, for some reason _stext is a
few hundred bytes after the kaslr offset. The number doesn't appear
consistent and I would prefer not to take a dependency on that.
