[PATCH] x86/Intel: don't report multiple errors for a single insn operand

Multiple errors are more confusing than helpful, as the more generic
one often implies a sufficiently different adjustment than would
actually be needed to fix the code. Additionally it makes it more
cumbersome to add missing error checks, as the testsuite then needs
extra updating.

* config/tc-i386-intel.c (i386_intel_operand): Don't call
as_bad() if a prior error was already reported.
* testsuite/gas/i386/inval-avx512f.l,
testsuite/gas/i386/x86-64-inval-avx512f.l: Adjust expectations.
