[Bug middle-end/36758] New: address addition moved out of the loop

["pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

Take the following testcase:
extern int f0(int *);
void
f1()
{
  int x;
  while (f0(&x));
}

-- CUT ---
Currently GCC produces:
        addi 31,1,112
        .p2align 3,,7
.L2:
        mr 3,31
        bl f0
        nop
        cmpdi 7,3,0
        bne 7,.L2

Notice how there is mr 3, 31 inside the loop.  At least on the Cell, the mr and
addi both have the same cycle count so we should not be moving the addition
outside of the loop.  This will save at least one volatile register which
should reduce code size.  This is a definite win for code size.
