[PATCH 6/6] coredump: '% at the end' shouldn't bypasscore_uses_pid logic

[Oleg Nesterov]

"goto end" should not bypass the "Backward compatibility with
core_uses_pid" code, move this label up.

While at it,

	- It is ugly to copy '|' into cn->corename and then inc
	  the pointer for argv_split().

	  Change format_corename() to increment pat_ptr instead.

	- Remove the dead "if (*pat_ptr == 0)" in format_corename(),
	  we already checked it is not zero.
