FW: [PATCHv2 1/2] In the ARC assembler we have some special flag handling for the ".t" and ".nt" flags which only really applies to ARCv2, though currently the check is performed for all architectures.

Hi Claudiu,
Thanks for the feedback.
Changes at second version are:
1. remove extra space after dot.
2. use ARC_OPCODE_ARCV2 macro.
Regards
Rinat
In a later commit I'll be adding a new version of the ".nt" flag for an
ARC700 extension (NPS400) which does not require this same special handling.
In this commit I have restricted the special flag handling to only apply if we are assembling for ARCv2. This is a restructuring commit, and there should be no user visible changes after this commit.
gas/ChangeLog:
* config/tc-arc.c (assemble_insn): Only handle ".t" and ".nt"
specially for ARCv2.
