[Crash-utility] [PATCH] arm64: handle vabits_actual symbol missing case
After the commit 0d9b1ffefabe ("arm64: mm: make vabits_actual
a build time constant if possible") introduced in v5.19
Linux kernel, the crash will not find vabits_actual symbol
if if VA_BITS <= 48. Add a fallback option to initialize VA_BITS
based on the user supplied machdep option.
Tested ramdumps loading in both 6.0 and 5.15 kernels.
