I think "ELF32" or "ELF64" word is improper while this is irrelevant
to ELF format.  This makes confusion with CONFIG_BOOT_ELF32.

How about simple BUILD_SYM32?  And replase BUILD_ELF32 with
BUILD_SYM32 too?


That's a good point. What about replacing BUILD by KBUILD meaning this
macro is coming from Kbuild itsel ?

And maybe it would be interesting to make obvious that this macro
implies 64-bits kernel. What about something like KBUILD_64BIT_SYM32
and replace 'BUILD_ELF32=no' by 'KBUILD_SYM32=no' ?
