[PATCH] give elf_check_arch() a chance for checking endian mismatch

["Roy Lee" <roylee17@gmail.com>]

I'd like to warn for endianess mismatch, or unsupported feature( hardware
float point support) when loading an ELF file.
The problem is that if the endianess mismatches happens, the logic inside
the elf_check_arch() won't have a chance to be executed.
Because the "elf_ex.e_type" would be misinterpreted and the elf_check_arch()
will be skipped.
This patch should give elf_check_arch() more chance to do some machine
dependent checking.
