Subject: [PATCH 5.4 29/58] elfcore: correct reference to CONFIG_UML

From: Lukas Bulwahn <lukas.bulwahn@...il.com>

commit b0e901280d9860a0a35055f220e8e457f300f40a upstream.

Commit 6e7b64b9dd6d ("elfcore: fix building with clang") introduces
special handling for two architectures, ia64 and User Mode Linux.
However, the wrong name, i.e., CONFIG_UM, for the intended Kconfig
symbol for User-Mode Linux was used.

Although the directory for User Mode Linux is ./arch/um; the Kconfig
symbol for this architecture is called CONFIG_UML.

Luckily, ./scripts/checkkconfigsymbols.py warns on non-existing configs:

  UM
  Referencing files: include/linux/elfcore.h
  Similar symbols: UML, NUMA

Correct the name of the config to the intended one.

[akpm@...ux-foundation.org: fix um/x86_64, per Catalin]
