An earlyclobber operand X prevents *other* input operands from using the same

Right, that's another interpretation, which would require a clarification in
the documentation
Sure, improving the doc is always good.
I'm fine with either forbidding &= (as proposed here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2014-07/msg00094.html ) or clarifying the
semantics in the documentation.
+ is essentially a shortcut for = with a matching constraint in the input
operand, so I don't think it is the right level to forbid anything.
