Wouldn't this also break compiling code that contains power9 instructions
but guarded by runtime tests to only be executed on power9 machines? That
seems a valid usecase, and it'd be bad if the assembler fails to compile
such. (You can't use -mcpu=power9 as work around as the other
unguarded code is not supposed to be using power9 insns).
Ciao,
Michael.
