    elf: Do not search HWCAP subdirectories in statically linked binaries
    
    This functionality does not seem to be useful since static dlopen
    is mostly used for iconv/character set conversion and NSS support.
    gconv modules are loaded with full paths anyway, so that the
    HWCAP subdirectory logic does not apply.
