Subject: opcodes: i386-reg.tbl: Add a comment to reflect dependency on ordering
X-Git-Tag: binutils-2_42~66
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9f00e4b78e6b7d68ee9a0052a9553472982afc91;p=thirdparty%2Fbinutils-gdb.git

opcodes: i386-reg.tbl: Add a comment to reflect dependency on ordering

The ginsn representation keeps the DWARF register number of the
operands.  The API ginsn_dw2_regnum relies on the the relative ordering
of these register entries in the table.  Add a comment to make it clear.
