ELF/MIPS build fix
CONFIG_MIPS32_N32=y but CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF disabled results in the
following linker errors:
arch/mips/built-in.o: In function `elf_core_dump':
binfmt_elfn32.c:(.text+0x23dbc): undefined reference to `elf_core_extra_phdrs'
binfmt_elfn32.c:(.text+0x246e4): undefined reference to `elf_core_extra_data_size'
binfmt_elfn32.c:(.text+0x248d0): undefined reference to `elf_core_write_extra_phdrs'
binfmt_elfn32.c:(.text+0x24ac4): undefined reference to `elf_core_write_extra_data'
CONFIG_MIPS32_O32=y but CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF disabled results in the following
linker errors:
arch/mips/built-in.o: In function `elf_core_dump':
binfmt_elfo32.c:(.text+0x28a04): undefined reference to `elf_core_extra_phdrs'
binfmt_elfo32.c:(.text+0x29330): undefined reference to `elf_core_extra_data_size'
binfmt_elfo32.c:(.text+0x2951c): undefined reference to `elf_core_write_extra_phdrs'
binfmt_elfo32.c:(.text+0x29710): undefined reference to `elf_core_write_extra_data'
This is because binfmt_elfn32 and binfmt_elfo32 are using symbols from
elfcore but for these configurations elfcore will not be built.
Fixed by making elfcore selectable by a separate config symbol which
unlike the current mechanism can also be used from other directories
than kernel/, then having each flavor of ELF that relies on elfcore.o,
select it in Kconfig, including CONFIG_MIPS32_N32 and CONFIG_MIPS32_O32
which fixes this issue.
