THanks.  I've pushed this to the trunk.

ps.  Quite a discussion on this topic in the zmmul public discussion
from a couple years ago.  But it looks like the consensus was that M
should imply Zmmul.

Wacky timing: I just sat down to try and reply to the "how do C and Zca
relate" thread in binutils, only to find this one instead.  I think
we've now got the same issue that Jan is pointing out in binutils:
basically +M and -M aren't inverses any more (it would leave on Zmmul).
Not 100% sure there.

FWIW that M/Zmmul thread basically made me give up so I don't really
care that much either way, IMO anyone depending on these fine-grained
extension things is in for a pile of brokenness.  So as long as we
document what we do it's fine with me.
Yea, when I read it my thought was this was a waste of time, but that I
didn't care enough to fight it.

Unfortunately it looks like the patches didn't actually get tested and
is causing a few hundred regressions.  Once I confirm I'll officially
revert and ask Tsung Chun to post an update after fixing the testing
failures.

OK, works for me ;)
