Commit 9ad21c3f3e ("kbuild: try harder to find symbol names in
modpost") added Elf_Sword (in a wrong way), but did not use it at all.
BTW, the current code looks weird.
The fix for the 32-bit part would be:
Elf64_Sword --> Elf32_Sword
(inconsistet prefix, Elf32_ vs Elf64_)
The fix for the 64-bit part would be:
Elf64_Sxword --> Elf64_Sword
(the size is different between Sword and Sxword)
Note:
Elf32_Sword == Elf64_Sword == int32_t
Elf32_Sxword == Elf64_Sxword == int64_t
Anyway, let's drop unused code instead of fixing it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
