In arch/*/kernel/crash_dump*.c, there exist many similar code
about copy_oldmem_page(), remove copy_to() in fs/proc/vmcore.c
and add copy_to_user_or_kernel() in lib/usercopy.c, then we can
use copy_to_user_or_kernel() to simplify the related code.

It should be an inline function in uaccess.h, see below why.

Changing int to bool in all the callers should be another patch. You can 
have copy_to_user_or_kernel() take a bool in the patch while still 
having all the callers using an int.

extern keyword is pointless for function prototypes, please don't add 
new ones.

Ref my answer to Andrew, I don't think outlining this fonction is a 
worth it. As shown in that mail, the size of the caller is increased by 
4 instructions (which is in the noise) but also this new function is not 
small. So I see no benefit in term of size, and I don't think there is 
any benefit in terms of performance either.

In this patch that's the same. Before the patch, read_vmcore() has a 
size of 0x338.
With this patch, read_vmcore() has a size of 0x340. So that's 2 
instructions more, so no benefit either.

So I think this should remain an inline function like in your first 
patch (but with the new name).

Commit 2c94767fa768 ("kdump: vmcore: remove copy_to() and add
