Allow the .cfi_sections directive to be reissued provided that CFI generation has not yet started.
PR gas/19614 * dw2gencfi.c (cfi_sections_set): Delay setting this variable until it is actually used. (cfi_set_sections): Set cfi_sections_set to true. (dot_cfi_startproc): Likewise. (dot_cfi_endproc): Likewise. (dot_cfi_fde_data): Likewise. (cfi_finish): Likewise. (dot_cfi_sections): Do not set cfi_sections_set. * doc/as.texinfo (.cfi_sections): Note that targets can provide their own cfi section name. Also note that the directive can be reissued provided that CFI generation has not started. * testsuite/gas/mips/compact-eh-err2.s: Add .cfi_startproc and .cfi_endproc directives so that the redefinition of .cfi_sections will trigger the generation of the error message. * testsuite/gas/mips/compact-eh-err2.l: Update expected line number of error message.
