Subject: elf: use ELF_CORE_EFLAGS for kcore ELF header flags
From: "Edgar E. Iglesias" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
ELF_CORE_EFLAGS is already used by the binfmt_elf coredumper to set correct
arch specific ELF header flags on coredumps. Use it for kcore dumps as well.
At the moment, this affects the CRIS and the H8300 arch.
