Some DPDK application is allolcateed storage partition of 8G(or smaller)
If coredump happens, the application doesn't work because of
insufficient storage space.
The patch provides a config that means whether the huge used memory
needs to be not dumped in core dump.
The DPDK application can choose to open it according to the actual
situation.

Fixes: d72e4042c5eb ("mem: exclude unused memory from core dump")
