[PATCH] Improve dlopen error reporting

[Jakub Jelinek <jakub@redhat.com>]

Hi!

If somebody attempts to dlopen an ET_REL object, the error reported is
ELF file's phentsize not the expected size
and not
only ET_DYN and ET_EXEC can be loaded
because of the order of error checks.  ET_REL files usually have e_phentsize
0, but complaining about that instead of the type of object can be quite
confusing to the users.
The following patch reorders the checks.

	* elf/dl-load.c (open_verify): Move e_phentsize check after e_type
	check.
