From ca1f9c22ee36eff340febccc79cb9b6ef8c7fc4b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Martin Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2011 17:10:05 +0100 Subject: ARM: assembler.h: Add string declaration macro Declaring strings in assembler source involves a certain amount of tedious boilerplate code in order to annotate the resulting symbol correctly. Encapsulating this boilerplate in a macro should help to avoid some duplication and the occasional mistake.
