My bad, I sent a previous version of the patch by mistake. There should be no 
changes to any testcase expectation.

*** gas/ChangeLog ***

2017-01-26  Thomas Preud'homme  <thomas.preudhomme@arm.com>

	* config/tc-arm.c (arm_ext_v6m): Delete.
	(arm_ext_v7m): Delete.
	(arm_ext_m): Remove ARM_EXT_OS from the set of feature defined M
	profile.
	(arm_arch_v6m_only): Delete.
	(do_t_swi): Remove special case for ARMv6S-M.
	(md_assemble): Display error message previously in do_t_swi when
	SVC is not available.
	(insns): Guard swi and svc by arm_ext_os for Thumb mode.
	(aeabi_set_public_attributes): Remove special case for ARMv6S-M.

*** include/ChangeLog ***

2017-02-02  Thomas Preud'homme  <thomas.preudhomme@arm.com>

	* opcode/arm.h (ARM_AEXT_V4TxM): Add ARM_EXT_OS bit to the set.
	(ARM_AEXT_V4T): Likewise.
	(ARM_AEXT_V5TxM): Likewise.
	(ARM_AEXT_V5T): Likewise.
	(ARM_AEXT_V6M): Mask off ARM_EXT_OS bit.

Is this still ok?

Best regards,

Thomas
