Using elfos.h for mips*-elf targets


This patch converts the mips*-elf targets to use elfos.h, removes some
unneeded gunk from mips/elf.h, and deletes mips/elf64.h altogether.
As well as the clean-up factor, the main motivation was to use:

        .local  foo
        .comm   foo,...

instead of:

        .lcomm  foo,...

The first is better because, unlike .lcomm, .comm takes a third
alignment parameter[*].  At the moment, we have to round up the
size of .lcomm to the alignment boundary and hope for the best
(see the fix for PR16407).

  [*] At least when using GAS or the n32/n64 SGI assemblers.
      The o32 SGI assembler doesn't accept the alignment even
      for .comm, but that's not an issue for mips*-elf targets.

The mips/elf.h definitions of the following macros were the same
as those in elfos.h:

    MAX_OFILE_ALIGNMENT
    TARGET_ASM_NAMED_SECTION
    TYPE_OPERAND_FMT
    TYPE_ASM_OP
    SIZE_ASM_OP
    MAKE_DECL_ONE_ONLY
    INIT_SECTION_ASM_OP
    FINI_SECTION_ASM_OP
    HANDLE_SYSV_PRAGMA

The handling of weak symbols was slightly different:

     #define ASM_WEAKEN_LABEL(FILE,NAME) ASM_OUTPUT_WEAK_ALIAS(FILE,NAME,0)
     #define ASM_OUTPUT_WEAK_ALIAS(FILE,NAME,VALUE)     \
      do {                                              \
       if (TARGET_GAS)                                  \
           fputs ("\t.weak\t", FILE);                   \
       else                                             \
           fputs ("\t.weakext\t", FILE);                \
       assemble_name (FILE, NAME);                      \
       if (VALUE)                                       \
         {                                              \
           fputc (' ', FILE);                           \
           assemble_name (FILE, VALUE);                 \
         }                                              \
       fputc ('\n', FILE);                              \
      } while (0)

but (a) !TARGET_GAS isn't a consideration for mips*-elf these days and
(b) '.weak' doesn't accept the '.weak foo bar' syntax.  That didn't
matter because we were using:

        .weak foo
        foo = bar

anyway.  And that's what you get with the elfos.h definition and
mips-specific ASM_OUTPUT_DEF.

Finally, mips/elf.h (unlike mips/elf64.h) defined BSS_SECTION_ASM_OP
and ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_BSS.  BSS_SECTION_ASM_OP isn't in itself
very useful; it just means we write:

        .section        .bss

instead of:

        .section        .bss,"aw",@nobits

It was needed for ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_BSS though.

The MIPS version of ASM_OUTPUT_ALIGNED_BSS handles sbss stuff, but that's
been superceded by the more recent target-independent small data handling
in varasm.c.  We can now leave varasm.c to choose .sbss when appropriate.

I tested this patch by compiling cc1, xgcc, etc., for the following targets:

   mips-netbsd  mipsisa32-elf  mipsisa32r2el-elf  mipsisa64-elf
   mipsisa64sr71k-elf  mipsisa64sb1el-elf  mips-elf  mips64-elf
   mips64vr-elf  mips64orion-elf  mips-rtems  mips-wrs-vxworks
   mips-wrs-windiss  mipstx39-elf

The vxworks target didn't build (ISTR there wsa a patch from cgd to
fix that).  The others built fine.  I diffed the configure and build
logs to make sure there were no new warnings.  I also diffed the
gcc-c-torture and gcc.dg output for each target.

Apart from the hoped-for .lcomm differences, the new output has .size
directives for functions and .ident strings at the end of each file.
Both of these are harmless.

The only other difference, and perhaps a more worrying one, is that
zero-length structures are now assembled to nothing.  Code like:

    struct {} s = {};

used to produce:

        .section        .bss,"aw",@nobits
        .align  3
        .type   s, @object
        .size   s, 0
s:
        .space  1

but we no longer emit the ".space 1" directive.  This means that
two zero-length structures could potentially have the same address.

Zero-length structures are a GNU extension, and I'm not sure whether
we guarantee that they have unique addresses.  If we do, then the
bug is in the call to assemble_zeros() in varasm.c:assemble_variable();
we should pass 1 rather than 0 for zero-length variables.

Regression tested on mips64-elf.  Also bootstrapped (as a sanity check)
on mips-sgi-irix6.5.  Eric, is this OK with you?
