Subject: [PATCH v2] arch: use ASM_NL instead of ';' for assembler new line character in the macro
Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2013 09:51:22 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <526F149A.3000306@asianux.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <526F11C0.1030809@asianux.com>

For some assemblers, they use another character as newline in a macro
(e.g. arc uses '`'), so for generic assembly code, need use ASM_NL (a
macro) instead of ';' for it.

Also need notice about code styles ('\t' for each line).
