Re: [PATCH] Don't error about x86 return value in SSE reg (or x86 reg) or argument in SSE reg too early (PR target/80298)

Committed with the following ChangeLog:

2017-04-05  Uros Bizjak  <ubizjak@gmail.com>

    PR target/80298
    * config/i386/mmintrin.h: Add -msse target option when __SSE__ is
    not defined for x86_64 target.  Add -mmmx target option when __SSE2__
    is not defined.
    * config/i386/mm3dnow.h: Add -msse target when __SSE__ is not defined
    for x86_64 target.  Handle -m3dnowa option.

I choose not to include testcases, since mm_malloc includes stdlib.h,
which uses SSE register return with -O2, resulting in:

In file included from /usr/include/stdlib.h:921:0,
                 from /ssd/uros/gcc-build/gcc/include/mm_malloc.h:27,
                 from /ssd/uros/gcc-build/gcc/include/xmmintrin.h:34,
                 from /ssd/uros/gcc-build/gcc/include/x86intrin.h:33,

/usr/include/bits/stdlib-float.h: In function 'atof':
/usr/include/bits/stdlib-float.h:27:1: error: SSE register return with
SSE disabled
compiler exited with status 1

This issue is out of scope of the compiler.

Bootstrapped and regression tested on x86_64-linux-gnu {,-m32}.

Committed to mainline SVN.

Uros.
