[PATCH] vhost: exclude VM hugepages from coredumps

[PATCH] vhost: exclude VM hugepages from coredumps

[Mike Pattrick]

Currently if an application wants to include shared hugepages in
coredumps in conjunction with the vhost library, the coredump will be
larger than expected and include unneeded virtual machine memory.

This patch will mark all vhost huge pages as DONTDUMP, except for some
select pages used by DPDK.
