In case you're wondering, one way to do this would be to add an assembler source file, compile it and run it through llvm-dwarfdump.
Alternatively you can use the new yaml2obj tool that is being developed.

(each vendor is free to define them as they wish, so it could be that multiple vendors have different definitions of the same code/number & would be ambiguous) I don't see any reason to block this patch if it doesn't have such a conflict, since there are already other vendor extension codes supported here for a variety of vendors - but does make me wonder.
