If the minidump module containing the instruction pointer has memory
containing the ELF header and program header table, when checking the
exploitability rating, the processor will use the ELF header data to determine
if the instruction pointer lies in an executable region of the module, rather
than just checking if it lies in a module.

When I first added the exception whitelist, I meant to put the check before
checking the location of the instruction pointer. (I didn't notice that it
was after the other check until now.) The whitelist check is to quickly rule
out minidumps, and if checking the instruction pointer provided any useful
information, it would be pretty indicative that the exception causing the
dump is interesting.

in valid code for Linux exploitability rating.
This CL adds to the Linux exploitability checker by verifying that the
instruction pointer is in valid code. Verification is done by obtaining a
memory mapping of the crash and checking if the instruction pointer lies in
an executable region. If there is no memory mapping, the instruction pointer
is checked to determine if it lies within a known module.
