Currently, even though memory is mapped with PROT_NONE, this does not
cause it to be excluded from core dumps. This is counter-productive,
because in a lot of cases, this memory will go unused (e.g. when the
memory subsystem preallocates VA space but hasn't yet mapped physical
pages into it).
Use `madvise()` call with MADV_DONTDUMP/MADV_NOCORE to exclude the
unused memory from being dumped.
