Hi Sri,

We were clearing all the bugs from the integrated assembler
(https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=20422), so if you could try it,
I'd love to hear how much we have progressed since the last time Hans
tried, for both ARM and AArch64.

Have you tried -Wa that Tim suggested? It should work just fine.

I agree Clang should pass down the architecture flags to the
assembler, but we're assuming the external assembler will accept all
variations Clang does, which may not be true.

cheers,
