proc/kcore: don't bounds check against address 0

The existing kcore code checks for bad addresses against __va(0) with
the assumption that this is the lowest address on the system.  This may
not hold true on some systems (e.g.  arm64) and produce overflows and
crashes.  Switch to using other functions to validate the address range.

It's currently only seen on arm64 and it's not clear if anyone wants to
use that particular combination on a stable release.  So this is not
urgent for stable.
