Fixes: 06bbaa6dc53c: "[coredump] don't use __kernel_write() on kmap_local_page()"

Instead of this ^^^, we could even move the definition of dump_emit_page() in
the same #ifdef as of dump_user_range(). Since dump_user_range() is the only
caller of dump_emit_page().

#ifdef CONFIG_ELF_CORE
[here]
int dump_user_range(struct coredump_params *cprm, unsigned long start,
		    unsigned long len)
{..}
#endif

But I guess that's just a nitpick. Feel free to add:
