[PATCH 2/6] target/ppc: optimize hreg_compute_pmu_hflags_value
Posted by Harsh Prateek Bora 6 months, 1 week ago
Cache env->spr[SPR_POWER_MMCR0] in a local variable as used in multiple
conditions to avoid multiple indirect accesses.

I think this is simple enough so the compiler should be able to find out 
on its own but adding a local is also simple and may make it more readable 
but I'd call it just mmcr0 for readability.
