Re: [PATCH v2 01/13] powerpc: Move 'struct ppc64_opd_entry' back into asm/elf.h

'struct ppc64_opd_entry' doesn't belong to uapi/asm/elf.h

It was initially in module_64.c and commit 2d291e902791 ("Fix compile
failure with non modular builds") moved it into asm/elf.h

But it was by mistake added outside of __KERNEL__ section,
therefore commit c3617f72036c ("UAPI: (Scripted) Disintegrate
arch/powerpc/include/asm") moved it to uapi/asm/elf.h

Move it back into asm/elf.h, this brings it back in line with
IA64 and PARISC architectures.

I wonder if we should add that third entry, just for completeness. And 
'r2' isn't a good name should probably be toc. And should it be packed? 
At any rate that's not for your series, a cleanup I might think about
for later.

Thanks,
Nick
