[PATCH v3] um: Fix build error and kconfig for i386

[PATCH v3] um: Fix build error and kconfig for i386

[Mickaël Salaün]

Fix build error by generating elfcore.o only when ELF_CORE (depending on
COREDUMP) is selected:

arch/x86/um/built-in.o: In function `elf_core_write_extra_phdrs':
(.text+0x3e62): undefined reference to `dump_emit'
arch/x86/um/built-in.o: In function `elf_core_write_extra_data':
(.text+0x3eef): undefined reference to `dump_emit'

Fixes: 5d2acfc7b974 ("kconfig: make allnoconfig disable options behind EMBEDDED and EXPERT")

It looks like ELF_CORE depends on COREDUMP, but not on BINFMT_ELF.
Should it?  What happens if you build this with ELF_CORE=y and
BINFMT_ELF=n?  Does that configuration even make sense?

It build fine with ELF_CORE=y and BINFMT_ELF=n but does not seem useful. Nevertheless, it's the same for all architectures (cf. init/Kconfig): ELF_CORE only depends on COREDUMP.

As long as that builds, then this patch doesn't introduce an
un-buildable Kconfig configuration, so it seems reasonable.  Thanks
again for producing a new version.
