Hi, all,

There are some major changes on NDS32 port in GCC-5.0:
   https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-09/msg00316.html
   https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-01/msg00992.html
   https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-01/msg00993.html

This patch is to describe them in changes.html.

Although it is target-specific part, it is welcome for others to have
review comments on its format, layout, and english words improvement.

If there is no other comments about this patch, I will commit it into
trunk next week. :)


Best regards,
jasonwucj
