Christophe Leroy 40272035e1 powerpc/bpf: Reallocate BPF registers to volatile registers when possible on PPC32
When the BPF routine doesn't call any function, the non volatile
registers can be reallocated to volatile registers in order to
avoid having to save them/restore on the stack.

Before this patch, the test #359 ADD default X is:

   0:	7c 64 1b 78 	mr      r4,r3
   4:	38 60 00 00 	li      r3,0
   8:	94 21 ff b0 	stwu    r1,-80(r1)
   c:	60 00 00 00 	nop
  10:	92 e1 00 2c 	stw     r23,44(r1)
  14:	93 01 00 30 	stw     r24,48(r1)
  18:	93 21 00 34 	stw     r25,52(r1)
  1c:	93 41 00 38 	stw     r26,56(r1)
  20:	39 80 00 00 	li      r12,0
  24:	39 60 00 00 	li      r11,0
  28:	3b 40 00 00 	li      r26,0
  2c:	3b 20 00 00 	li      r25,0
  30:	7c 98 23 78 	mr      r24,r4
  34:	7c 77 1b 78 	mr      r23,r3
  38:	39 80 00 42 	li      r12,66
  3c:	39 60 00 00 	li      r11,0
  40:	7d 8c d2 14 	add     r12,r12,r26
  44:	39 60 00 00 	li      r11,0
  48:	7d 83 63 78 	mr      r3,r12
  4c:	82 e1 00 2c 	lwz     r23,44(r1)
  50:	83 01 00 30 	lwz     r24,48(r1)
  54:	83 21 00 34 	lwz     r25,52(r1)
  58:	83 41 00 38 	lwz     r26,56(r1)
  5c:	38 21 00 50 	addi    r1,r1,80
  60:	4e 80 00 20 	blr

After this patch, the same test has become:

   0:	7c 64 1b 78 	mr      r4,r3
   4:	38 60 00 00 	li      r3,0
   8:	94 21 ff b0 	stwu    r1,-80(r1)
   c:	60 00 00 00 	nop
  10:	39 80 00 00 	li      r12,0
  14:	39 60 00 00 	li      r11,0
  18:	39 00 00 00 	li      r8,0
  1c:	38 e0 00 00 	li      r7,0
  20:	7c 86 23 78 	mr      r6,r4
  24:	7c 65 1b 78 	mr      r5,r3
  28:	39 80 00 42 	li      r12,66
  2c:	39 60 00 00 	li      r11,0
  30:	7d 8c 42 14 	add     r12,r12,r8
  34:	39 60 00 00 	li      r11,0
  38:	7d 83 63 78 	mr      r3,r12
  3c:	38 21 00 50 	addi    r1,r1,80
  40:	4e 80 00 20 	blr

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
