[PATCH] libelf: elf_getphdrnum sanity check the returned phnum result.

[Mark Wielaard]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2090 bytes --]

The internal __elf_getphdrnum_rdlock might return an inconsistent phnum.
Return a sanitized value, or return an error to users that rely on phnum
to be consistent. That way iterating over all phdrs using elf_getphdr
will return consistent results.
