Subject: [PATCH 4.18 047/197] fs/proc/kcore.c: use __pa_symbol() for KCORE_TEXT list entries

4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: James Morse <james.morse@....com>

[ Upstream commit df865e8337c397471b95f51017fea559bc8abb4a ]

elf_kcore_store_hdr() uses __pa() to find the physical address of
KCORE_RAM or KCORE_TEXT entries exported as program headers.

This trips CONFIG_DEBUG_VIRTUAL's checks, as the KCORE_TEXT entries are
not in the linear map.

Handle these two cases separately, using __pa_symbol() for the KCORE_TEXT
entries.
