Commit 46490b5725 ("MIPS: kernel: elf: Improve the overall ABI and FPU
mode checks") reworked the ELF FP ABI mode selection logic, but when
CONFIG_MIPS_O32_FP64_SUPPORT is enabled it breaks the use of binaries
which have no PT_MIPS_ABIFLAGS program header & associated
.MIPS.abiflags section.
A default mode is selected based upon whether the ELF contains MIPS32 or
MIPS64 code, but that selection is made in arch_elf_pt_proc.
arch_elf_pt_proc only executes when a PT_MIPS_ABIFLAGS program header is
found. If one is not found then arch_elf_pt_proc is never called, and no
default overall_fp_mode value is selected. When arch_check_elf is
called, both abi0 & abi1 are MIPS_ABI_FP_UNKNOWN which leads to both
prog_req & interp_req being set to none_req. none_req matches none of
the conditions for mode selection at the end of arch_check_elf, so
overall_fp_mode is left untouched. Finally once mips_set_personality_fp
is called the BUG() in the default case is then hit & the kernel likely
panics.
Fix this by moving the selection of a default overall mode to the start
of arch_check_elf, which runs once per ELF executed regardless of
whether it has a PT_MIPS_ABIFLAGS program header.
