kcore: use usual list for kclist 

This patchset is for /proc/kcore.  With this,

 - many per-arch hooks are removed.

 - /proc/kcore will know really valid physical memory area.

 - /proc/kcore will be aware of memory hotplug.

 - /proc/kcore will be architecture independent i.e.
   if an arch supports CONFIG_MMU, it can use /proc/kcore.
   (if the arch uses usual memory layout.)

This patch:

/proc/kcore uses its own list handling codes. It's better to use
generic list codes.

No changes in logic. just clean up.
