powerpc/bitops: Use immediate operand when possible
Today we get the following code generation for bitops like
set or clear bit:
c0009fe0: 39 40 08 00 li r10,2048
c0009fe4: 7c e0 40 28 lwarx r7,0,r8
c0009fe8: 7c e7 53 78 or r7,r7,r10
c0009fec: 7c e0 41 2d stwcx. r7,0,r8
c000d568: 39 00 18 00 li r8,6144
c000d56c: 7c c0 38 28 lwarx r6,0,r7
c000d570: 7c c6 40 78 andc r6,r6,r8
c000d574: 7c c0 39 2d stwcx. r6,0,r7
Most set bits are constant on lower 16 bits, so it can easily
be replaced by the "immediate" version of the operation. Allow
GCC to choose between the normal or immediate form.
For clear bits, on 32 bits 'rlwinm' can be used instead of 'andc' for
when all bits to be cleared are consecutive.
On 64 bits we don't have any equivalent single operation for clearing,
single bits or a few bits, we'd need two 'rldicl' so it is not
worth it, the li/andc sequence is doing the same.
With this patch we get:
c0009fe0: 7d 00 50 28 lwarx r8,0,r10
c0009fe4: 61 08 08 00 ori r8,r8,2048
c0009fe8: 7d 00 51 2d stwcx. r8,0,r10
c000d558: 7c e0 40 28 lwarx r7,0,r8
c000d55c: 54 e7 05 64 rlwinm r7,r7,0,21,18
c000d560: 7c e0 41 2d stwcx. r7,0,r8
On pmac32_defconfig, it reduces the text by approx 10 kbytes.
