    elf: Do not process invalid tunable format
    
    Tunable definitions with more than one '=' on are parsed and enabled,
    and any subsequent '=' are ignored.  It means that tunables in the form
    'tunable=tunable=value' or 'tunable=value=value' are handled as
    'tunable=value'.  These inputs are likely user input errors, which
    should not be accepted.
    
    Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.
