vmcoreinfo_max_size stands for the vmcoreinfo_data, the correct one we
should use is vmcoreinfo_note whose total size is VMCOREINFO_NOTE_SIZE.

Like explained in commit 77019967f06b ("kdump: fix exported size of
vmcoreinfo note"), it should not affect the actual function, but we
better fix it, also this change should be safe and backward compatible.

After this, we can get rid of variable vmcoreinfo_max_size, let's use
the corresponding macros directly, fewer variables means more safety for
vmcoreinfo operation.
