[dev.cc] all: edit assembly source for ARM to be more regular
Several .s files for ARM had several properties the new assembler will not support. These include: - mentioning SP or PC as a hardware register These are always pseudo-registers except that in some contexts they're not, and it's confusing because the context should not affect which register you mean. Change the references to the hardware registers to be explicit: R13 for SP, R15 for PC. - constant creation using assignment The files say a=b when they could instead say #define a b. There is no reason to have both mechanisms. - R(0) to refer to R0. Some macros use this to a great extent. Again, it's easy just to use a #define to rename a register.
