[RFA] Fix for failing gdb.base/corefile.exp on Linux

[ppluzhnikov@google.com (Paul Pluzhnikov)]

Greetings,

(Some?) Linux kernels do not write out unmodified mmaped regions,
which causes gdb.base/corefile.exp to fail:

Running ../../../src/gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/corefile.exp ...
FAIL: gdb.base/corefile.exp: accessing mmapped data in core file (mapping address not found in core file)

Attached patch fixes that.
Ok to commit?
