'struct ppc64_opd_entry' doesn't belong to uapi/asm/elf.h
It was initially in module_64.c and commit 2d291e902791 ("Fix compile
failure with non modular builds") moved it into asm/elf.h
But it was by mistake added outside of __KERNEL__ section,
therefore commit c3617f72036c ("UAPI: (Scripted) Disintegrate
arch/powerpc/include/asm") moved it to uapi/asm/elf.h
Move it back into asm/elf.h, this brings it back in line with
IA64 and PARISC architectures.

As Michael said on v1, I'm a little nervous about moving it out of uAPI
after so long, although I do take the points of Arnd and Kees that we're
not breaking compiled binaries, nor should people be using this struct
to begin with...
I've cc:ed the linux-api@ list.
Kind regards,
Daniel

I wonder if we should add that third entry, just for completeness. And
'r2' isn't a good name should probably be toc. And should it be packed?
At any rate that's not for your series, a cleanup I might think about
for later.
Thanks,
Nick
