If you need to support the Google Play 16 kiB page size requirement, the recommendation is to use NDK r28c or newer, which automatically aligns binaries correctly.

armeabi is almost deprecated for android-ndk higher that r13b.
either it doesn't compile (ICE), or it executes wrongly (using long long for instance).
android people advices to use armeabi-v7a (or use r13b).

README-android says to copy or link the SDL source tree to the jni folder in your Android project. It is not desirable to have to compile SDL with every application; furthermore the Android NDK has support for prebuilt libraries.
Attached is script (to be put in build-scripts) that builds the Android version of the libraries. The script builds both the existing SDL2 module and a new SDL2_main module. This is a static library containing the code from src/main/android/SDL_android_main.c. Also attached is a patch for Android.mk adding this module.
Note that when building an application's native .so using this prebuilt libSDL2main, you must use a link option, such as --whole-archive, that forces inclusion of the code in the .so because the functions in SDL_android_main are called only from Java.
