arm64: crash_core: Export MODULES, VMALLOC, and VMEMMAP ranges
The following interrelated ranges are needed by the kdump crash tool:
MODULES_VADDR ~ MODULES_END,
VMALLOC_START ~ VMALLOC_END,
VMEMMAP_START ~ VMEMMAP_END
Since these values change from time to time, it is preferable to export
them via vmcoreinfo than to change the crash's code frequently.
