I just stumbled over the MAP_UNINITIALIZED defintion, initially
added by:

nommu: fix malloc performance by adding uninitialized flag
The defintion depends on CONFIG_MMAP_ALLOW_UNINITIALIZED, which
will never be set by userspace. How is this supposed to work?
Shoudn't we define the symbol unconditionally and just turn it
into a no-op in the implementation?
There are a few similar issues, like struct elf_prstatus having
a different layout depending on CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF_FDPIC, or
MAX_SHARED_LIBS defending on CONFIG_BINFMT_SHARED_FLAT.
