sparc64: only select COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF if BINFMT_ELF is set
[ Upstream commit 80bddf5c93a99e11fc9faf7e4b575d01cecd45d3 ]
Currently COMPAT on SPARC64 selects COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF unconditionally,
even when BINFMT_ELF is not enabled. This causes a kconfig warning.
Instead, just select COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF if BINFMT_ELF is enabled.
This builds cleanly with no kconfig warnings.
WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF
