The elf_check_arch() function is used to test usermode binaries, but kernel modules may have more specific requirements. powerpc would like to test for ABI version compatibility.
Add an arch-overridable function elf_check_module_arch() that defaults to elf_check_arch() and use it in elf_validity_check().
