[PATCH] Change idt64.ld to also accept MIPS32r2 objects


When testing GCC with the mips-sim-idt64 board, the -mips32r2 multilib from
the mips64r2-elfoabi configuration fails to link.  (Note that this is not an
r2-only issue, mips64-elfoabi would fail similarly.)

idt64.ld sets OUTPUT_ARCH to isa64 which neither extends nor is a subset of
isa32r2.  To fix this, the patch below changes OUTPUT_ARCH to isa64r2.  I also
extended the comment to explain why setting the ISA in OUTPUT_ARCH is
necessary.

With this I was able to test -mips32r2 on mips-sim-idt64.  Also GCC
testresults are identical for mipsisa64r2-elfoabi with the default multilib
before and after.

OK to install?  Should I also change idt32.ld to isa32r2 for consistency?

	* mips/idt64.ld: Set arch to mips:isa64r2 from mips:isa64.  Update
	comment.
