Change the dynamic linker path for ARM hard float executables.
Matches the path discussed and agreed on last week[1].  Carlos will
follow up with the matching patch to GLIBC[2].  I'm happy to if he's
busy.

OK for trunk?

	* config/arm/linux-eabi.h (GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER_HARD_FLOAT): Define.
	(GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER_SOFT_FLOAT): Define.
	(GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER):	Redefine to use the hard float path.

I think this should handle having the hard-float variant as the default
more gracefully, so something like:


-#define GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER "/lib/ld-linux.so.3"
+#define GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER_SOFT_FLOAT "/lib/ld-linux.so.3"
+#define GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER_HARD_FLOAT "/lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3"
+#if TARGET_DEFAULT_FLOAT_ABI == ARM_FLOAT_ABI_HARD
+#define GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER_DEFAULT GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER_HARD_FLOAT
+#else
+#define GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER_DEFAULT GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER_SOFT_FLOAT
+#endif
+#define GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER \
+   "%{mfloat-abi=hard:" GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER_HARD_FLOAT "} \
+    %{mfloat-abi=soft*:" GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER_SOFT_FLOAT "} \
+    %{!mfloat-abi=*:" GLIBC_DYNAMIC_LINKER_DEFAULT "}"

But I haven't tested any of that.

I'm testing a glibc patch with Richard's alternate version.

If all goes well I'll post it tomorrow for review on libc-ports@sourceware.org.

Cheers,
Carlos.
