[PATCH] arch/tile: remove dead code from intvec_32.S

From: Chris Metcalf
Date: Fri Sep 24 2010 - 17:32:13 EST


This "bpt_code" instruction was killed off in our development line a while
ago (the actual definition of bpt_code that is used is in kernel/traps.c)
but I didn't push it for 2.6.36 because it seemed harmless and I didn't
want to try to push more than absolutely necessary.

However, we recently fixed a bug in our gcc that had been causing
"-gdwarf2" not to be passed to the assembler, and passing this flag causes
an erroneous assembler failure in the presence of code in a data section,
sometimes. While we'd like to track down the bug in the assembler,
we'd also like to make sure 2.6.36 builds with the current toolchain,
so I'm removing this dead code as well.
