I am not sure I understand your comment. Given this call tree:
- arm_process_displaced_insn
- arm_relocate_insn_arm
...
- arm_relocate_insn_thumb_32bit
...
- arm_relocate_insn_thumb_16bit
...
my patch makes it so that the arm_relocate_insn* functions return an error code, and
arm_process_displaced_insn calls internal_error if an error is returned. Do you suggest
putting the internal_error calls in the arm_relocate_insn_* functions directly?
