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.
Fixes:

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.
