    dump: kdump-zlib data pages not dumped with pvtime/aarch64
    
    The kdump-zlib data pages are not dumped from aarch64 host when the
    'pvtime' is involved, that is, when the block->target_end is not aligned to
    page_size. In the below example, it is expected to dump two blocks.
    
    (qemu) info mtree -f
    ... ...
      00000000090a0000-00000000090a0fff (prio 0, ram): pvtime KVM
    ... ...
      0000000040000000-00000001bfffffff (prio 0, ram): mach-virt.ram KVM
    ... ...
    
    However, there is an issue with get_next_page() so that the pages for
    "mach-virt.ram" will not be dumped.
    
    At line 1296, although we have reached at the end of the 'pvtime' block,
    since it is not aligned to the page_size (e.g., 0x10000), it will not break
    at line 1298.
    
    1255 static bool get_next_page(GuestPhysBlock **blockptr, uint64_t *pfnptr,
    1256                           uint8_t **bufptr, DumpState *s)
    ... ...
    1294             memcpy(buf + addr % page_size, hbuf, n);
    1295             addr += n;
    1296             if (addr % page_size == 0) {
    1297                 /* we filled up the page */
    1298                 break;
    1299             }
    
    As a result, get_next_page() will continue to the next
    block ("mach-virt.ram"). Finally, when get_next_page() returns to the
    caller:
    
    - 'pfnptr' is referring to the 'pvtime'
    - but 'blockptr' is referring to the "mach-virt.ram"
    
    When get_next_page() is called the next time, "*pfnptr += 1" still refers
    to the prior 'pvtime'. It will exit immediately because it is out of the
    range of the current "mach-virt.ram".
    
    The fix is to break when it is time to come to the next block, so that both
    'pfnptr' and 'blockptr' refer to the same block.
