    ARC e_flags vs. objcopy
    
    While the patch that Nick reverted in commit 3f6a060c7543 was in the
    source, "FAIL: objcopy executable (pr25662)" was seen on ARC.  The
    failure was triggered by the .ARC.attributes section being removed by
    the linker script.  When a file lacking this section is copied by
    objcopy, e_flags from the input is copied to the output (in this case
    the value 0x406), but arc_elf_final_write_processing then logical-ors
    in 0x300 when Tag_ARC_ABI_osver is not found.
    
            * elf32-arc.c (arc_elf_final_write_processing): Don't ignore
            existing e_flags for objcopy.
