Here's a documentation fix.  I suspect this is enough to allow the PR to 
be closed, given that
* this asm syntax is a gcc extension, I believe, and as such we
can specify it to behave however we like.
* the behavior isn't going to change any time in the near future.
* in general the problem can be worked around if people are aware of it.

	PR optimization/6162
	* md.texi: Document restriction on commutative operand
	specification.

+GCC can only handle one commutative pair in an asm; if you use more,
