x86: Add entry trampolines to kcore

Without program headers for PTI entry trampoline pages, the trampoline
virtual addresses do not map to anything.

Example before:

 sudo gdb --quiet vmlinux /proc/kcore
 Reading symbols from vmlinux...done.
 [New process 1]
 Core was generated by `BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.16.0 root=UUID=a6096b83-b763-4101-807e-f33daff63233'.
 #0  0x0000000000000000 in irq_stack_union ()
 (gdb) x /21ib 0xfffffe0000006000
    0xfffffe0000006000:  Cannot access memory at address 0xfffffe0000006000
 (gdb) quit

After:

 sudo gdb --quiet vmlinux /proc/kcore
 [sudo] password for ahunter:
 Reading symbols from vmlinux...done.
 [New process 1]
 Core was generated by `BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.16.0-fix-4-00005-gd6e65a8b4072 root=UUID=a6096b83-b7'.
 #0  0x0000000000000000 in irq_stack_union ()
 (gdb) x /21ib 0xfffffe0000006000

    0xfffffe0000006032:  push   %rdi
    0xfffffe0000006033:  mov    $0xffffffff91a00010,%rdi
    0xfffffe000000603a:  callq  0xfffffe0000006046
    0xfffffe000000603f:  pause
    0xfffffe0000006041:  lfence
    0xfffffe0000006044:  jmp    0xfffffe000000603f
    0xfffffe0000006046:  mov    %rdi,(%rsp)
    0xfffffe000000604a:  retq
 (gdb) quit

In addition, entry trampolines all map to the same page.  Represent that
by giving the corresponding program headers in kcore the same offset.

This has the benefit that, when perf tools uses /proc/kcore as a source
for kernel object code, samples from different CPU trampolines are
aggregated together.  Note, such aggregation is normal for profiling
i.e. people want to profile the object code, not every different virtual
address the object code might be mapped to (across different processes
for example).

Notes by PeterZ:

This also adds the KCORE_REMAP functionality.
