You're barking up the wrong tree. Applications are trying to coredump
(or prepare for one), and your default size limit for that (0) is
lower than what they're trying to allocate. You're seeing those
specific logs because you have CONFIG_GRKERNSEC_RESLOG on, but it
would be happening whether or not you were running -hardened.
Check out 'ulimit -a' or search for 'ulimit' in bash(1).
