Subject: MIPS/GCC/doc: Fix `d' constraint description
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0cb14750e7723c50011c6c9c73dca6e8608486e5;p=gcc.git

MIPS/GCC/doc: Fix `d' constraint description

Revert a part of the `d' constraint documentation update made with
commit 111868 ("Use define_constraint for MIPS"),
<https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2006-03/msg00460.html>,
<https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2006-03/msg00541.html>, which
inadvertently made the registers covered to be referred to as "address"
rather than "general-purpose" registers, and then further clarify the
set of registers allowed with MIPS16 code.

	* config/mips/constraints.md (d): Fix documentation.
	* doc/md.texi (Machine Constraints): Update accordingly.
