Introduce a new READELF variable to top-level Makefile, so the name of
readelf binary can be specified.
Before this change the name of the binary was hardcoded to
"$(CROSS_COMPILE)readelf" which might not be present for every
toolchain.
This allows to build with LLVM Object Reader by using make parameter
READELF=llvm-readelf.

Thanks for the patch!
This is a general cleanup that should improve cross compilation
(readelf should be treated as ever binary in the list like
objcopy/objdump/etc), and allow us to use binutils substitutes for
readelf that aren't called `readelf` (ie. `llvm-readelf`).

No need to explicitly CC me; I monitor our list like a hawk.

Grepping the kernel sources for `READELF`, it looks like
arch/ia64/Makefile makes the same mistake. Would you mind fixing both
cases in the same patch (v2)? I'm also curious about it's use in
arch/ia64/scripts/unwcheck.py, and scripts/faddr2line. +ia64
maintainers and list.
I think if you simply remove the assignment on line 17 of
arch/ia64/Makefile you should be fine.

Whichever, as long as we don't have to wait for the base patch to land
via kbuild tree, then submit arch specific ones to their respective
trees months later.

I am fine with either way.
I can take this patch, and also a one for IA64.
You can send a patch for arch/riscv/kernel/vdso/Makefile
to the riscv maintainer since it has no patch dependency.
