Here the code changes phdr_ptr->p_offset to a new page-size aligned offset.
But it seems the phdr_ptr->p_paddr is still the non page-size aligned
physical address? Does the mismatch of a PT_LOAD segment and the physical
memory occur?
Or, later in makedumpfile, it will check the phdr_ptr->paddr to see if it
is page-size aligned and also phdr_ptr->p_memsz to get the real memory size,
not including padding?
