To me it looks like the wrong physical address is read from the old kernels
memory. In the parse_crash_elf64_headers() function the elfcorebuf is filled
with read_from_old_mem(). This buffer is passed later to the
merge_note_headers_elf64() function which iterates over the buffer and reads an
offset from it (offset = phdr_ptr->p_offset;). This offset is later passed to
read_from_oldmem again which causes the warning at some point. So my guess is
that the old kernel contains the invalid physical address in one of its PT_NOTE
type headers.
The question is why this address is there.
