/**
 * elf_validity_ehdr() - Checks an ELF header for module validity
 * @info: Load info containing the ELF header to check
 *
 * Checks whether an ELF header could belong to a valid module. Checks:
 *
 * * ELF header is within the data the user provided
 * * ELF magic is present
 * * It is relocatable (not final linked, not core file, etc.)
 * * The header's machine type matches what the architecture expects.
 * * Optional arch-specific hook for other properties
 *   - module_elf_check_arch() is currently only used by PPC to check
 *   ELF ABI version, but may be used by others in the future.
 *
 * Return: %0 if valid, %-ENOEXEC on failure.
