Currently /proc/<pid>/coredump_filter determines what types of memory are included in a coredump produced by <pid>. This is fairly static. The coredump server has no easy way to configure what memory to dump even though it can figure out all the necessary details to make an informed decision. Add a new COREDUMP_MEMORY_TYPES feature bit. If the coredump server raises it the kernel will dump memory types raised in the coredump_ack->memory_types member. Zero is valid and causes the creation of a coredump that just includes the program headers and notes but no memory apart from the mappings that are always dumped. struct coredump_req gains @memory_types which is set to the default memory types that are included in the coredump. This can be overridden by raising bits in coredump_ack->memory_types. It also gains @memory_types_mask which contains a bitmask of all memory types the kernel knows about. A coredump server may only raise bits in coredump_ack->memory_types that are raised in coredump_req->memory_types_mask. struct coredump_ack grows too. If COREDUMP_MEMORY_TYPES is raised in @mask the kernel dumps the memory types set in the @memory_types mask. Zero is valid and dumps no memory apart from the mappings that are always dumped. A coredump server wanting to add or drop memory types instead of outright replacing it should simply copy coredump_req->memory_types and then mask off or raise types as needed. @memory_types must be zero if COREDUMP_MEMORY_TYPES isn't raised. COREDUMP_MEMORY_TYPES requires COREDUMP_KERNEL and an ack of at least COREDUMP_ACK_SIZE_VER1 bytes.
