[PATCH] Use ELF_CORE_EFLAGS for kcore ELF header flags.

From: Edgar E. Iglesias
Date: Tue Feb 12 2008 - 08:34:35 EST


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 aswell.
This corrects kcore files for the CRIS arch and I beleive it corrects
ordinary coredumps for the H8/300.
