leaking_addresses: add range check for vsyscall memory
Currently script checks only first and last address in the vsyscall memory range. We can do better than this. When checking for false positives against $match, we can convert $match to a hexadecimal value then check if it lies within the range of vsyscall addresses. Check whole range of vsyscall addresses when checking for false positive. Signed-off-by: Tobin C. Harding <me@tobin.cc>
