It turns out I missed a crazy corner case of binfmt_flat, when coredumps
are disabled. This fixes a compile error that was reported.

HEAD: f833116ad2c3eabf9c739946170e07825cca67ed coredump: Don't compile flat_core_dump when coredumps are disabled

Can you include this as well.

Thank you,
Eric

This is the entire patch.

The little dinky do nothing function flat_core_dump has always been
compiled unconditionally. With my change to move coredump_params into
coredump.h coredump_params reasonably becomes unavailable when
coredump support is not compiled in. Fix this old issue by simply not
compiling flat_core_dump when coredump support is not supported.
