[PATCH] D19392: Emit code16 in assembly in 16-bit mode

[David Woodhouse via llvm-commits]

We did build the 16-bit boot code of the Linux kernel with -m16. Not just asm IiRC but actual codegen. I may have been lax in adding test cases?
Boarding a plane now so more coherent response (and validarion of my memories) probably won't come before Monday...

I didn't think we supported code16 compilation (only assembly). This appears to be the very first CodeGen test mentioning the triple and there's basically no reference to it in the actual X86 code.
