[RFC, PATCH 2/4] elf_core_dump(): Remove DUMP_WRITE macro

From: Daisuke HATAYAMA
Date: Mon Dec 14 2009 - 21:41:38 EST


In DUMP_WRITE macro, some local variables and goto statement are used
implicitly, which makes it confusing to understand how the dumping
process behaves. So, clean up it by unfolding the macro body directly
to the point where the original macro is used plus a bit of style
change.

Now that the previous patch replaced ELF_CORE_EXTRA_* macros in
fs/binfmt_elf.c, there is no users for DUMP_WRITE macro in
fs/binfmt_elf.c. Thus remove the definition of DUMP_WRITE macro.
