Hi Omair,
you need some descriptions about your patch rather than just a changelog

"New function" should be fine.

Likewise.

A blank line is needed here.

There are so many local variables defined.  Please define them in the
block in which they are used.

Nit: since 'single' is only used once, better to use
'bit (aarch64_insn_r->aarch64_insn, 24)', however this is just my
personal preference.

Add a comment here like /* Load/store single structure */

scale and replicate can be defined here.

Sorry, I don't understand this piece of code.  Could you elaborate?
This block is supposed to handle "Advanced SIMD load/store single
structure" and "Advanced SIMD load/store single structure
(post-indexed)", right?

local variables elements and rpt can be defined here, with comments.

Is it "ST4 (multiple structures)" instruction?  If it is, add comments
for each case about what instructions it is to handle.

The whole "else" branch is about "Advanced SIMD load/store multiple
structures" and "Advanced SIMD load/store multiple structures
(post-indexed)" instructions, IIUC.  How can ld_flag (bit 22) be true?
It is always zero as far as I can tell from the manual.

Last but not least, we need test case for these Advanced SIMD
instructions, as compiler may not generate these instructions for
gdb.reverse/*.c files.  x86 has already had some tests, so aarch64
should have some too.  As a start, we don't need to cover all Advanced
SIMD instructions in one go.
