vaddr needs to be equal to the paddr since the dump file represents the

Without setting vaddr correctly, GDB would load all the different memory

The elf.add_vmcoreinfo_note() method expects a "bytes" object. Wrap
the returned memory with bytes(), which works with both 'memoryview'
and 'buffer'.

Fixes a regression introduced with commit

Python-lang gdb script to extract x86_64 guest vmcore from qemu coredump

When qemu dies unexpectedly, for example in response to an explicit
abort() call, or (more importantly) when an external signal is delivered
to it that results in a coredump, sometimes it is useful to extract the
guest vmcore from the qemu process' memory image. The guest vmcore might
help understand an emulation problem in qemu, or help debug the guest.

This script reimplements (and cuts many features of) the
qmp_dump_guest_memory() command in gdb/Python,

https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb/Python-API.html

working off the saved memory image of the qemu process. The docstring in
the patch (serving as gdb help text) describes the limitations relative to
the QMP command.

Dependencies of qmp_dump_guest_memory() have been reimplemented as needed.
I sought to follow the general structure, sticking to original function
names where possible. However, keeping it simple prevailed in some places.

The patch has been tested with a 4 VCPU, 768 MB, RHEL-6.4
(2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64) guest:
