Does ptrace (or user of this API) need a unique value per arch. Otherwise instead
of adding the boilerplate code to all arches, they could simply define AUDIT_ARCH
and common code could return it. Also the EM_xxx are not there in
include/uapi/linux/elf.h to begin with since libc elf.h already defines them.

So I don't have the context of this patch (or coverletter) but what exactly are we
trying to do with this (adding LE to audit) - what happens when an arch is
capable of either and is say built for BE ?
