[arm] Constant pool placement fix.


The fist if in add_minipool_forward_ref checks that the new fix fits before an 
existing constant pool.  However it does not catch the case where the 
instruction and the new constant pool entry would overlap. In this case the 
fixup would be added anyway, leading to out of range displacements.

The attached patch changes this code to check that the pool starts after the 
end of the corresponding instruction. It also modifies create_fix_barrier to 
verify that there is a suitable location for the pool instead of assuming it 
can be inserted after the last fixup.
The arm_reorg change fixes an off-by-one error uncovered by this checking. 
We need to set max_address just after the address of the next fixup because 
the create_fix_barrier makes space before the pool for a jump insn.

The original testcase is rather large, and very sensitive to changes.
I haven't managed to come up with a suitable testcase.

Tested with cross to arm-none-eabi.
Applied to mainline and branches/csl/arm-4_1.

	* config/arm/arm.c (add_minipool_forward_ref): Check if insn
	and pool overlap.
	(create_fix_barrier): Check that a suitable barrier location is
	found.
	(arm_reorg): Include ftmp->address in allowable range of addresses.
