[Patch, ARM] Relax the restrictions on REG_SP under Thumb mode on ARMv8-A
For Thumb mode, since ARMv8-A, REG_SP is allowed in most of the places in
Rd/Rt/Rt2 etc while it was disallowed before ARMv8-A, and was rejected through
the "reject_bad_reg" macro and several scattered checks.
This patch only rejects REG_SP in "reject_bad_reg" and several related places
for legacy architectures before ARMv8-A. I have checked those affected instructions
, all of them qualify such relaxations.
Testcases adjusted accordingly.
* ld-sp-warn.d was written without .arch and without -march options passed.
By default it assumes all architectures, so I deleted the REG_SP warning
on ldrsb as it's supported on ARMv8-A. There are actually quite a few
seperate tests on other architectures, for example ld-sp-warn-v7.l etc.,
so there the test for ldrsb on legacy architectures are still covered.
* sp-pc-validations-bad-t has been extended to armv8-a.
* strex-bad-t.d restricted on armv7-a.
* Some new tests for REG_SP used as Rd/Rt etc added in sp-usage-thumb2-relax*.
