The code in question is just printing the @tlsgd or @tlsld arg.  I
don't see any point in asserting that no other UNSPEC could ever be
used in a call operand.  Other places dealing with UNSPEC_TLSGD
and UNSPEC_TLSLD don't check, and if another UNSPEC is invented for
some fancy future call insn it's quite unlikely to want to output
anything here.

(I don't think I found such an UNSPEC already extant..)

Either should work.  So, yes, probably better with TARGET_ELF.
