Re: [PATCH] gas, bfd, gold: Rename Arm v8/v9 architecture tags
Richard Earnshaw reviews a patch from Sivan Shani that renames the Arm AEABI CPU architecture tag constants and macro definitions to include the profile suffix for A-profile architectures, making the naming consistent with existing v8-R and v8-M tag names. Earnshaw requests a minor indentation fix in bfd/cpu-arm.c.
