Subject: [PATCH v4 77/79] include/uapi/linux/elfcore.h: remove non-compiling userspace parts

Remove typedef elf_greg_t greg_t and friends from userspace.
Remove struct elf_prstatus completely from userspace.

elfcore.h as such does not compile in userspace. All userspace users
of <linux/elfcore.h> like gcc/gdb and linux-tools contain their own modified
versions of the file. With these changes the file compiles but is generally
not usable for things like core dump parsing but luckily userspace users
already know this and have their own modified version of the needed
definitions and headers. But at least this compiles now.
