Subject: [PATCH] sparc64: fix kconfig dependency bug for COMPAT
When COMPAT is enabled and BINFMT_ELF is disabled, it results in the
following Kbuild warning:
WARNING: unmet direct dependencies detected for COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF
Depends on [n]: COMPAT [=y] && BINFMT_ELF [=n]
Selected by [y]:
- COMPAT [=y] && SPARC64 [=y]
The reason is that COMPAT selects COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF without depending on
or selecting BINFMT_ELF while COMPAT_BINFMT_ELF depends on BINFMT_ELF.
This can also fail building the kernel as demonstrated in a bug report.
Honor the kconfig dependency to remove unmet direct dependency warnings
and avoid any potential build failures.
