I really think the double indirection adds way too much complexity
here, it makes it rather hard to understand what is going on, and
that leads to bugs.

fs/compat_binfmt_elf.c is not doing much at all, and most of it is not
actually needed if you just make a copy of that file and fill in the
data as needed. Some of the overrides (ELF_ARCH, ELF_PLATFORM, ELF_NREG,
ELF_HWCAP, ELF_HWCAP2) are identical between ilp32 and lp64 modes
for arm64, but are different for arm32 compat, so you don't even have
to override them at all.
