[PATCH] mips: vmcore: forced convert 'hdr' in elf_check_arch()

[yanjiang.jin at windriver.com]

From: Yanjiang Jin <yanjiang.jin at windriver.com>

elf_check_arch() will be called both in parse_crash_elf64_headers()
and parse_crash_elf32_headers(). But in these two functions, the type of
the parameter ehdr is different: Elf32_Ehdr and Elf64_Ehdr.

Function parse_crash_elf_headers() reads e_ident[EI_CLASS] then decides to
call parse_crash_elf64_headers() or parse_crash_elf32_headers().
This happens in run time, not compile time. So compiler will report
the below warning:

In file included from include/linux/elf.h:4:0,
                 from fs/proc/vmcore.c:13:
fs/proc/vmcore.c: In function 'parse_crash_elf32_headers':
arch/mips/include/asm/elf.h:258:23: warning: initializatio
n from incompatible pointer type
  struct elfhdr *__h = (hdr);     \
                       ^
fs/proc/vmcore.c:1071:4: note: in expansion of macro 'elf_
check_arch'
   !elf_check_arch(&ehdr) ||
    ^
