Randomization of PIE load address is hard coded in binfmt_elf.c for
X86 and ARM. Create a new Kconfig variable
(CONFIG_ARCH_BINFMT_ELF_RANDOMIZE_PIE) for this and use it instead.
Thus architecture specific policy is pushed out of the generic
binfmt_elf.c and into the architecture Kconfig files.
X86 and ARM Kconfigs are modified to select the new variable so there
is no change in behavior. A follow on patch will select it for MIPS
too.
