Hi All,
When instructions such as MRRC are used with the same destination registers
then the result is unpredictable but no warning was issued to the user.
This patch adds a warning for this pattern to the instructions:
* MRRC
* MRRC2
Added new test for message and ran tests for gas for arm-none-linux-gnueabi:
Ok for trunk?
Thanks,
Tamar
