+From 4a4286465b5d6c28968bc2b29ae08daca7f219a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
+From: Nick Clifton <nickc@redhat.com>
+Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2016 11:42:48 -0800
+Subject: [PATCH] Fix the generation of alignment frags in code sections for AArch64.
+
+PR gas/20364
+* config/tc-aarch64.c (s_ltorg): Change the mapping state after
+aligning the frag.
+(aarch64_init): Treat rs_align frags in code sections as
+containing code, not data.
+* testsuite/gas/aarch64/pr20364.s: New test.
+* testsuite/gas/aarch64/pr20364.d: New test driver.
+
+Backporting the patch from binutils mainline
+https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;h=7ea12e5c3ad54da440c08f32da09534e63e515ca
