Hm, yes. There's still a lot of crap being exposed there that we really
don't need to be showing. Try this entirely untested patch...

The sparc64 version could do with something similar, too.


----
[SPARC] Clean up asm-sparc/elf.h pollution in userspace.

We don't need to export sparc_elf_hwcap() to userspace, and it doesn't
build there. Remove it by moving it inside #ifdef __KERNEL__, along with
some other things which don't need to be exported.
