PR gas/31388
Like other command line options this should be mentioned in
documentation as well, not just in "as --help" output.

+These options control if the assembler should check certain instruction
+operands or operand combinations.  An example instructions where operand size
+cannot be inferred from its operands and also hasn't been specified by way of
+an instruction suffix.
+@option{-moperand-check=@var{none}} will make the assembler not perform
+these checks.  @option{-moperand-check=@var{warning}} will make the assembler
+issue a warning when respective checks fail, which is the default.
+@option{-moperand-check=@var{error}} will make the assembler issue an error
