Subject: [PATCH v4 2/8] vmcore: clean up read_vmcore()

Rewrite part of read_vmcore() reading objects in vmcore_list in the
same way as part reading ELF headers, by which some duplicated and
redundunt codes are removed.

Later patch will introduce a flag for vmcore objects to represent
whether a given memory associated with the vmcore object resides in
the 1st kernel (old memory) or the 2nd kernel. Then, this function
will be modified so as to decide where to read according to the flag
of a given vmcore object. This cleanup will also be useful to make the
change clearer.
