fs/proc/kcore: reinstate bounce buffer for KCORE_TEXT regions

Some architectures do not populate the entire range categorised by
KCORE_TEXT, so we must ensure that the kernel address we read from is
valid.

Unfortunately there is no solution currently available to do so with a
purely iterator solution so reinstate the bounce buffer in this instance
so we can use copy_from_kernel_nofault() in order to avoid page faults
when regions are unmapped.

This change partly reverts commit 2e1c0170771e ("fs/proc/kcore: avoid
bounce buffer for ktext data"), reinstating the bounce buffer, but adapts
the code to continue to use an iterator.
