xtensa: remove KCORE_ELF again
The Kconfig symbol KCORE_ELF was removed in v2.6.0, but reappeared in two architectures. It is useless. Remove it again. Signed-off-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle@tiscali.nl> Signed-off-by: Max Filippov <jcmvbkbc@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Chris Zankel <chris@zankel.net>

If you enabled support for /proc file system then the file
|
||||
/proc/kcore will contain the kernel core image in ELF format. This
|
||||
can be used in gdb:
|
||||
|
||||
$ cd /usr/src/linux ; gdb vmlinux /proc/kcore
|
||||
|
||||
This is especially useful if you have compiled the kernel with the
|
||||
"-g" option to preserve debugging information. It is mainly used
|
||||
for examining kernel data structures on the live kernel.
