When building on some old system with old kernel headers, the
gen_tables.c program (built natively) doesn't build due to missing
EHWPOISON. This commit defines EHWPOISON to the value found in
asm-generic kernel headers, which is correct for most (but not all
architectures).
Anyway, the whole concept of building a program on the host to generate
a table with errno values, then built into a target program is
inherently broken, so our fix is not more broken than the rest of the
mechanism used by audit.
