[PATCH, S390] Avoid LA with base and index on z13


> But on zEC12 LA works pretty much the same as on z13/z14, it is
> indeed not cracked, but still a 2-cycle instruction when using
> an index register.  So I guess the change really should apply
> to zEC12 as well, and this could be as simple as changing the
> above line to:
> 
>   if (addr.indx && s390_tune >= PROCESSOR_2817_Z196)
> 
> (Note that "addr.base && addr.indx" is the same as just checking
> for addr.indx, since s390_decompose_address will never fill in
> *just* an index.)

Good point, I adapted the patch and changed the comment.

Regards
 Robin
