Add support for ARMv8-M Mainline with DSP extension
2016-05-10 Thomas Preud'homme <thomas.preudhomme@arm.com> bfd/ (elf32_arm_merge_eabi_attributes): Add merging logic for Tag_DSP_extension. binutils/ * readelf.c (display_arm_attribute): Add output for Tag_DSP_extension.

* ARC backend accepts .extInstruction, .extCondCode, .extAuxRegister, and
.extCoreRegister pseudo-ops that allow an user to define custom
instructions, conditional codes, auxiliary and core registers.
