Hi!
%g7 register is fixed thread pointer register both in Linux and to my
knowledge in Solaris as well, used for TLS (and on Linux for
-fstack-protector as well).
But, if in some source we want to read the thread pointer register
and do something like:
register void *tp __asm ("%g7");
then ld won't allow mixing such objects with other objects that
use %g7 solely for TLS (or -fstack-protector).
The patch below just instructs as/ld to not issue any warnings about that,
no checking is IMHO needed for %g7 - GCC has hardcoded %g7 in many places
as thread pointer register and so does Linux (and presumably Solaris)
libc as well.

* config/sparc/sparc.c (sparc_output_scratch_registers): Use
#ignore instead of #scratch for %g7 .register directive.
