These constants are useful for cross-platform userspace, for example to process ELF files during kernel cross-compilation. Move them from the kernel-private architecture-specific header to the UAPI.Why UAPI? Why not include/linux/ ?
I guess because on some architectures it is already in UAPI, see for instance powerpc in patch 5 ? Christophe
