[Crash-utility] PATCH] support vmcores with 64k page size on 4k page size kernels

Hi Dave Recently there were changes made to kexec tools to support 64K page size. With those changes vmcore file obtained from a kernel which supports 64K page size cannot be analyzed using crash on a machine running with kernel supporting 4K page size. The following changes in crash tool resolves the problem. Look if the symbol __hash_page_64k exists. This symbol is defined only for kernels with 64K PAGE SIZE support. If yes then the dump was taken with a kernel supporting 64k page size. So use the vmcore page size[64K] instead of getpagesize().
