Commit f42db6a33f0e ("Support core files with "unusual" layout")
increased the minimal file size from MIN_NETDUMP_ELF_HEADER_SIZE to
SAFE_NETDUMP_ELF_HEADER_SIZE which lead to crash rejecting very
small kdump files.

Fix that by erroring out only if we get less than
MIN_NETDUMP_ELF_HEADER_SIZE bytes.
