Eric W. Biederman f833116ad2 coredump: Don't compile flat_core_dump when coredumps are disabled
Recently the kernel test robot reported:

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.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
