Remove i386_elf_emit_arch_note
This x86 assembler patch: https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2001-11/msg00344.html generates a .note section for .arch directive so that GDB can tell which architecture an i386 binary belongs: https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2001-11/msg00271.html However, x86 assembly code can have any instructions. A .note section doesn't help. This patch removes it. gas/ * config/tc-i386.c (i386_elf_emit_arch_note): Removed. * config/tc-i386.h (md_end): Likewise. (i386_elf_emit_arch_note): Likewise. gas/testsuite/ * gas/i386/i386.exp: Run note. * gas/i386/note.d: New file. * gas/i386/note.s: Likewise.
