Perhaps, but we are off in the weeds anyway.

The original fuzzer input had a completely crazy expression for "s".
s=%ymm5%%%!%%%%!%%%%%%%\x1d%%%%%%%%%%%%%%��������������������������%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%!%ebp%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%M%%%%%%[s<��%[s<�����%%%%%��������������/+�������������%%%%[s<��%[s<�����%%%%'%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%;%%%%%%!%%%%!%%%%%%%%%%%%%#NO

My testcase was a little tidier but still gives:

mad.s: Error: invalid operands (*GAS `reg' section* and *GAS `reg' section* sections) for `%' when setting `s'

The aim of the patch is to stop an abort *before* we decide the
expression is invalid.  i386 parse_register was being called via
md_parse_name in gas/expr.c:operand.
