s390/crash: use static swap buffer for copy_to_user_real()
Currently a temporary page-size buffer is allocated for copying
oldmem to user space. That limits copy_to_user_real() operation
only to stages when virtual memory is available and still makes
it possible to fail while the system is being dumped.
Instead of reallocating single page on each copy_oldmem_page()
iteration use a statically allocated buffer.
This also paves the way for a further memcpy_real() rework where
no swap buffer is needed altogether.
