Thanks for the fix, I had similar one [1] but I missed issue with
ALIGN_DOWN.

This was tested on 64-bit only. I do see an issue with this version
though. Inline below.

chunk_offset is unset unless a new devcoredump is read which is every
1.5 GB. You will need always call div_u64_rem outside of the above if
statement.
