[Crash-utility] using crash for ARM

[paawan oza]

Hi,

I added the code, but I am still getting mismatch for following kernel virtual addresses.
<ignore the text, its my writing, but adding below patch did not help >

looks like we have to check 20th bit and take it into consideration.

corrupt page tables;invalid virtual address 0xC0100000

Isn't the problem actually that we read the section entry wrong?
The following (and attached) is the fix I've been using for this.
