aaron.ballman added inline comments.

================
Comment at: clang/docs/ReleaseNotes.rst:410-412
+- The driver option ``-menable-unsafe-fp-math`` has been removed. Passing it, 
will
+result in a hard error. To enable unsafe floating-point optimizations, the 
compiler
+options ``-funsafe-math-optimizations`` and ``-ffast-math`` are used instead.

If we're going to deprecate rather than remove, sure. But I think we're okay 
removing, and I think the default error diagnostic behavior will be sufficient.
