Good suggestion, we can now use the DiagnosticPredicate (https://reviews.llvm.org/D45879) to improve these diagnostics. I'll do that in a separate patch though.

Checking for the caret would be a nice addition, but since FileCheck doesn't check white-space coding this explicitly in the test using a regular expression becomes a bit cumbersome. I noticed this is also not done in any of the other diagnostics files (although I reckon this is not an argument not to do it), but I think the coverage without caret is sufficient if the rest of the instruction is valid.
