[PATCH v2] arc: Select CPU model properly before disassembling


Changes in V2:

* Use xstrprintf instead of string_printf
* Reinstate arc_delayed_print_insn as a print instruction function for ARC.
* Change arc_delayed_print_insn to use default_print_insn.
* Change commit description accordingly.

---

Enforce CPU model for disassembler via its options, if it was specified in XML
target description, otherwise use default method of determining CPU implemented
in disassembler - scanning ELF private header.  The latter requires
disassemble_info->section to be properly initialized.  To make sure that
info->section is set in all cases this patch partially reverts [1] for ARC: it
reinstates arc_delayed_print_insn as a "print_insn" function for ARC, but
now this function only sets disassemble_info->section and then calls
default_print_insn to do the rest of the job.

Support for CPU in disassembler options for ARC has been added in [2].

yyyy-mm-dd  Anton Kolesov  <anton.kolesov@synopsys.com>

	* arc-tdep.c (arc_disassembler_options): New variable.
	(arc_gdbarch_init): Set and use it. Use arc_delayed_print_insn instead
	of default_print_insn.
	(arc_delayed_print_insn): Set info->section when needed,
	use default_print_insn to retrieve a disassembler.
