x86/tools: Fix gcc-7 warning in relocs.c

gcc-7 warns:

In file included from arch/x86/tools/relocs_64.c:17:0:
arch/x86/tools/relocs.c: In function ‘process_64’:
arch/x86/tools/relocs.c:953:2: warning: argument 1 null where non-null expected [-Wnonnull]
  qsort(r->offset, r->count, sizeof(r->offset[0]), cmp_relocs);
  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In file included from arch/x86/tools/relocs.h:6:0,
                 from arch/x86/tools/relocs_64.c:1:
/usr/include/stdlib.h:741:13: note: in a call to function ‘qsort’ declared here         
 extern void qsort 

This happens because relocs16 is not used for ELF_BITS == 64, 
so there is no point in trying to sort it.

Make the sort_relocs(&relocs16) call 32bit only.
