[PATCH 1/3] Move AARCH64 ILP32 rejection handling


For AARCH64 ILP32, we reject compatibility too
early on to support gdb ILP32.  This patch
moves ILP32 rejection from compatible
to elfNN_aarch64_merge_private_bfd_data
which allows aarch64 and aarch64:ilp32
to be handled correctly with gdb.
An added bonus is that we can have an error
message on why two object files are rejected.

OK?  Tested both binutils and gdb.

Thanks,
Andrew Pinski

	* cpu-aarch64.c (compatible):
	Don't reject different mach or ILP32 here.
	* elfnn-aarch64.c (elfNN_aarch64_merge_private_bfd_data):
	Add an error message on why endianess is rejected.
	Reject different ILP32/LP64 settings.
