[PATCH] RISC-V: Pass -mno-relax through to assembler if supported

[PATCH] RISC-V: Pass -mno-relax through to assembler if supported

[James Clarke]

GCC will emit ".option (no)relax" in its outputted assembly, but when
using it as an assembler driver, such as for preprocessed assembly, it's
merely preprocessing and therefore will not generate this directive.
Therefore we should pass -mno-relax on to the assembler if specified
(and supported) as we do for other flags.

gcc/
	* configure.ac: (gcc_cv_as_riscv_mno_relax): Check if the
	assembler supports -mno-relax.
	* configure: Regenerate
	* config.in: Regenerate
	* config/riscv/riscv.h (ASM_MNO_RELAX_SPEC): Define based on
	HAVE_AS_MNO_RELAX_OPTION.
	(ASM_SPEC): Add %(asm_mno_relax_spec).
	(EXTRA_SPECS): Define to include $(asm_mno_relax_spec) and
	SUBTARGET_EXTRA_SPECS.
	(SUBTARGET_EXTRA_SPECS): Provide empty default value.

This looks good.  I will commit when your assignment comes through.
