This is because [*] Is this backwards? Previously, we _can't_ substitute register numbers directly into proper instruction mnemonics: we have to use .insn with an expression to generate the opcode directly instead (possibly via a macro). With this change we can paste the _for number straight into human- readable assembler mnemonics. > gas is not able to evaluate the expression generated if used in > registers name (i.e x\n).

This reference is obviously useful to reviewers, but I'm not sure about the life expectancy of such a URL. It probably belongs after the tearoff line rather than in the commit message. > The implementation of "for" is updated to use the alternate macro mode > and %, so we can use the macro in more cases. As the alternate macro mode > may have side-effect, this is disabled when generating the body. Nit: side-effects Nit: I'd probably say "expanding the body", to be consistent with gas's own terminology.
