If we are running on a Linux platform we should call linux_init_abi
in order to get all the useful hooks it enables.

	* aarch64-linux-tdep.c (aarch64_linux_init_abi): Call

This makes sense to me, and it's actually what the 32bit side of
the code is already doing. OK to apply.

It'd be nice also if you could confirm that this patch was tested
prior to submitting, and how it affects the testsuite results.
This often helps future research...

I'll wait a couple of days to see if anyone from ARM objects.

The patch was tested manually to check that things like "info proc
maps" now works. The testsuite is in pretty bad shape on aarch64 but
no new failures are added.

I applied this as there were no objections.
