kdump: Write the correct address of mem_section into vmcoreinfo

Depending on configuration mem_section can now be an array or a pointer
to an array allocated dynamically. In most cases, we can continue to refer
to it as 'mem_section' regardless of what it is.

But there's one exception: '&mem_section' means "address of the array" if
mem_section is an array, but if mem_section is a pointer, it would mean
"address of the pointer".

We've stepped onto this in the kdump code: VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL(mem_section)
writes down the address of pointer into vmcoreinfo, not the array as we wanted,
breaking kdump.

Let's introduce VMCOREINFO_SYMBOL_ARRAY() that would handle the
situation correctly for both cases.
