Tamar Christina b4e87f2c1e Arm: Fix performance issue with thumb-2 tailcalls
We currently use a padding NOP after a Thumb to Arm interworking veneer (BX pc).
The NOP is never executed but may result in a performance penalty on some cores.

For this reason this patch changes the NOPs after Thumb to Arm veneers into B .-2
and adds a note to this in the source code for future reference.

bfd/ChangeLog:

	* elf32-arm.c (elf32_thumb2_plt_entry, elf32_arm_plt_thumb_stub,
	elf32_arm_stub_long_branch_v4t_thumb_thumb,
	elf32_arm_stub_long_branch_v4t_thumb_arm,
	elf32_arm_stub_short_branch_v4t_thumb_arm,
	elf32_arm_stub_long_branch_v4t_thumb_arm_pic,
	elf32_arm_stub_long_branch_v4t_thumb_thumb_pic,
	elf32_arm_stub_long_branch_v4t_thumb_tls_pic): Change nop to branch to
	previous instruction.
