Bootstrap and test on arm-none-linux-gnueabihf looks fine.
Unfortunately, on aarch64-none-linux-gnu I noticed a regression compared to GCC 5.3:
FAIL: gcc.target/aarch64/vbslq_u64_1.c scan-assembler-times bif\\tv 1

This is PR 68696 that has been triggered on that branch.
The patch fixing that is at:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-12/msg00826.html

I have bootstrapped and tested it on aarch64-none-linux-gnu on top of the 5.4 RC
and it fixes the regression. It applies cleanly to that branch.

Is it okay to backport it to the branch?

Thanks,
Kyrill
