[PATCH v2 5/6] powerpc: use the jump label for cpu_has_feature

From: Kevin Hao
Date: Mon Aug 24 2015 - 07:21:21 EST


The cpu features are fixed once the probe of cpu features are done.
And the function cpu_has_feature() does be used in some hot path.
The checking of the cpu features for each time of invoking of
cpu_has_feature() seems suboptimal. This tries to reduce this
overhead of this check by using jump label.

The generated assemble code of the following c program:
if (cpu_has_feature(CPU_FTR_XXX))
xxx()

Before:
lis r9,-16230
lwz r9,12324(r9)
lwz r9,12(r9)
andi. r10,r9,512
beqlr-

After:
nop if CPU_FTR_XXX is enabled
b xxx if CPU_FTR_XXX is not enabled
