Hi

	This patch adds support mvfr2 control registers for armv8-a as this was 
missed from the original port to armv8-a (documented at G6.2.109 in 
(Issue B.a) of the ARM-ARM. This was discovered by an internal user of 
the GNU toolchain.

I'd like to backport this to the binutils 2.28 and binutils 2.29 release 
branch if possible (with suitable testing and basically checking 
removing the armv8-r parts).

Tristan - are you ok with the backports ?

Applied to trunk.

regards
Ramana
