Hi

Also if it is ok, can I also ask for a backport to 2.31?
It applies cleanly and does not show any regressions.

Thanks

Subject: [PATCH, BINUTILS, AARCH64] Add SSBB and PSSBB
  

Hi

This patch adds the following speculation barrier instructions
to the AArch64 assembler and disassembler as given in:
https://static.docs.arm.com/ddi0596/a/DDI_0596_ARM_a64_instruction_set_architecture.pdf
SSBB
PSSBB

These are added retrospectively to all older architectures,
and thus have been added as CORE_INSN.

Testing done: Builds and reg tests all pass on aarch64-none-linux-gnu.
Updated test to check.

Is this ok for trunk? I do not have commit rights. If this seems ok
can someone commit it on my behalf.

Thanks
Sudi
