    s390: gas: sframe: do not reject .cfi_register REG_SP, REG
    
    On s390 64-bit (s390x) compilers may save the SP, FP, and RA registers,
    which are of interest in SFrame, in other registers, such as floating-
    point registers, for instance when in a leaf function.
    
    SFrame does not explicitly track the SP.  Instead SFrame relies on the
    architecture-specific CFA definition to recover the SP.  The s390x ELF
    ABI [1] defines the CFA as SP at call site + 160, which results in the
    implicit SP recovery rule SP = CFA - 160.
    
    Assuming that CFI on s390 64-bit (s390x) adheres to the CFA definition,
    it is safe to ignore any CFI directives, that specify the SP register at
    entry to be saved either on the stack or in another register, as the SP
    can then always be recovered using the implicit SP recovery rule.

            * gen-sframe.c (sframe_xlate_do_register): Ignore .cfi_register SP
            on s390x.
    
    gas/testsuite/
            * gas/cfi-sframe/cfi-sframe.exp (cfi-sframe-s390x-err-4): Rename
            test to cfi-sframe-s390x-sp-register.
            * gas/cfi-sframe/cfi-sframe-s390x-err-4.d: Rename to ...
            * gas/cfi-sframe/cfi-sframe-s390x-err-4.s: Likewise.
            * gas/cfi-sframe/cfi-sframe-s390x-sp-register.d: This.  Test
            that .cfi_register SP is ignored.
            * gas/cfi-sframe/cfi-sframe-s390x-sp-register.s: Likewise.  Add
            minimal assembler sample.
