binfmt_elf: Warn on missing or suspicious regset note names
Now that all regset definitions declare an explicit note name, warn if the note name is missing when generating a core dump. Simplify the fallback to always guess "LINUX", which is appropriate for all Linux-specific notes (i.e., all newly added notes, for a long time now). The one standard exception (PR_FPREG) will no longer have an "unexpected" note name overridden, but a warning will still be emitted. Also warn if the specified note name doesn't match the legacy pattern -- but don't bother to override the name in this case. This warning can be removed in future if new note types emerge that require a specific note name that is not "LINUX". No functional change, beyond the extra noise in dmesg and not overriding an unexpected note name for PR_FPREG any more. Now that all upstream arches are ported to use USER_REGSET_NOTE_TYPE(), new regsets created by copy-pasting existing code should end up correct by construction.
