cover Add ILP32 support in aarch64

This is third version of my patches. This previous version is here[1][2]. The previous discussion, Gustavo agree that only external toolchain is in consideration at this time. I will try to work on the buildroot toolchain after current series patch is upstreamed.

ILP32 is very useful when the user want to migrate from arm 32bit to 64bit with minimal risk. There is almost no code changes after migration. ILP32 could get the better performance compare with arm 32bit (use 64bit register and instruction instead of 32bit one) and aarch64 LP64 (aarch64 default ABI).

Our test show that the performance of ILP32 is roughly 10% better than arm64 LP64 while the footprint is 86% of LP64. Because of these, It is useful for both embedded and enterprise system.

Here is the details definition of ILP32:
ILP32 is elf32 with aarch64 assembly and is compiled by 64bit compiler. Refer the following table:

  \-            |  arm 32bit  | arm64 ILP32 | arm64 LP64
----------------|-------------|-------------|-------------
instruction set |   armv7-a   |   armv8-a   |   armv8-a
int             |   32bit     |   32bit     |   32bit
long            |   32bit     | **32bit**   |   64bit
pointer         |   32bit     | **32bit**   |   64bit

LP64 is the default ABI on arm64(Implies -mabi=lp64 while compiling), and the kernel remains in LP64 no matter ILP32 enables or not.

These series patches introduce the big endian support in aarch64 and then add ILP32 special filename and menuconfig step by step.

The test of build is based on linaro kernel[3] and toolchain built by linaro ABE environment[4], anyone could built this toolchain through the simpile abe script.

This is my first time I try to contribute the buildroot, feedback is very appreciated. Sorry if there are some coding style issues.

changes since v2
1. Add "!BR2_aarch64_be" along with "!BR2_aarch64" in patch 1/5 according to the suggestion from Thomas.
2. Improve the ifeq in patch 2/5 according to Gustavo.
3. Do not pass invalid "-mabi" option to ld in patch 3/5 according to Gustavo.

changes since v1

1.  Avoid mabi issue in gcc 4.8 while build aarch64 lp64.
2.  Change default libc, toolchain for ilp32 build.
3.  Others changes suggested by Gustavo.

PATCH 1/5 aarch64: add big endian(aarch64_be) support

Add aarch64_be support. Note that CONFIG_CPU_BIG_ENDIAN should be defined in kernel config when building a big endian kernel. Add !BR2_aarch64_be along with !BR2_aarch64 in the following file:
grep "\!BR2_aarch64" find . -name "Config.*"

PATCH 2/5 aarch64: ilp32: handle special file name

In reply to Zhang Jian (Bamvor)

In aarch64 ilp32, the directory of library is libilp32. And the linker is ld-linux-aarch64_ilp32.so.1 or ld-linux-aarch64_be_ilp32.so.1 which is linked to libilp32/ld-VERSION.so(ld-2.20.so in my system).

PATCH 3/5 aarch64: ilp32: add ilp32 compiler and linker flags

In reply to Zhang Jian (Bamvor)

In aarch64, lp64 is the default ABI. Need pass the special flags if the user want to compile and link ilp32 application. Pass the special flags to linker to ensure that linker see the same abi with compiler.

PATCH 4/5 aarch64: ilp32: add ilp32 build config

In reply to Zhang Jian (Bamvor)

Add ILP32 in menuconfig. And disable the libc and toolchain which does not support ILP32.
