    commit 1f536b9e9f85456df93614b3c2f6a1a2b7d7cb9b upstream.

    Building an ARM target we get the following warnings:

    CC arch/arm/kernel/setup.o
    In file included from arch/arm/kernel/setup.c:39:
    arch/arm/include/asm/elf.h:102:1: warning: "vmcore_elf64_check_arch" redefined
    In file included from arch/arm/kernel/setup.c:24:
    include/linux/crash_dump.h:30:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition

    Quoting Russell King:

    "linux/crash_dump.h makes no attempt to include asm/elf.h, but it depends
    on stuff in asm/elf.h to determine how stuff inside this file is defined
    at parse time.

    So, if asm/elf.h is included after linux/crash_dump.h or not at all, you
    get a different result from the situation where asm/elf.h is included
    before."

    So add elf.h header to crash_dump.h to avoid this problem.
