I have a few comments about this patch as I have a patch which depends
on this for ThunderX.

Each new function should have a comment before it saying what the function does.
The checks inside aarch_macro_fusion_pair_p for single_set and
any_condjump_p seems a little too restrictive to add more fusion
without major changes to the code.
In the fusion case I am adding is about fusing any single cycle
arithmetic instruction (on ThunderX) that produces flags and the
branch that consumes it.

Thanks,
Andrew
