mm: add get_dump_page
In preparation for the next patch, add a simple get_dump_page(addr) interface for the CONFIG_ELF_CORE dumpers to use, instead of calling get_user_pages() directly. They're not interested in errors: they just want to use holes as much as possible, to save space and make sure that the data is aligned where the headers said it would be. Oh, and don't use that horrid DUMP_SEEK(off) macro!
