The elf notes is an old memory, it is encrypted.

But the elf header is a crash kernel reserved memory, which is unencrypted.
ssize_t __weak elfcorehdr_read(char *buf, size_t count, u64 *ppos)
{
- return read_from_oldmem(buf, count, ppos, 0);
+ return read_from_oldmem(buf, count, ppos, 0, false);
}

They call the same function(read_from_oldmem->ioremap_cache), so it is hard to
properly remap the memory if we don't use the parameter to distinguish.
