    liblink: place TEXT/GLOBL flags in p->from3 always · 77a415e5
    Russ Cox authored
    Before, amd64 and 386 stored the flags in p->from.scale
    and arm and ppc64 stored the flags in p->reg.
    Both caused special cases in printing and in handling of the
    addresses.
    
    To avoid possible conflicts with the real meaning of p->from
    and to avoid storing a non-register value in a reg field,
    use from3 to hold a TYPE_CONST value giving the flags.
    
    There is still a special case for printing, because the flags
    are specified without a $, and normally a TYPE_CONST prints
    with a $. But that's much less special than what came before.
    
    This allows us to remove the textflag and settextflag methods
    from LinkArch. They are no longer architecture-specific.
