Cliff Wickman b0051893fd x86, kdump: Change copy_oldmem_page() to use cached addressing
commit 37a2f9f30a upstream.

The copy of /proc/vmcore to a user buffer proceeds much faster
if the kernel addresses memory as cached.

With this patch we have seen an increase in transfer rate from
less than 15MB/s to 80-460MB/s, depending on size of the
transfer. This makes a big difference in time needed to save a
system dump.
