Subject: [PATCH 1/6] kcore: use usual list for kclist

From: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@...fujitsu.com>

/proc/kcore uses its own list handling codes. It's better to use
generic list codes.

No changes in logic. just clean up.

Changelog v2->v3
 - adjusted to mmotm-Aug-6. (it includes kcore-vread fix.)

Changelog v1->v2
 - no changes.
