Someone at Tensilica pointed out an error in the GAS documentation of 
subsections.  For named sections, both COFF and ELF, the current description 
says to use the .section directive to switch subsections.  This is incorrect for 
ELF, where you must use a separate .subsection directive.  Here is a patch to 
fix the doc.  It also fixes 3 instances of a typo in sections with ELF-specific 
directives -- I didn't bother to list these in the ChangeLog entry

OK?

	* doc/as.texinfo (Sub-Sections): Conditionalize COFF-specific use
	of .section directive; add a reference to the ELF .subsection
	directive.
