[PATCH] V6, #3 of 17: Update lwa_operand for prefixed PLWA


This patch allows using load SImode with sign extend to DImode to generate the
PLWA instruction on the 'future' machine if the offset for the load has the
bottom 2 bits being non-zero.  The normal LWA instruction is a DS format
instruction, and it needs the bottom 2 bits to be 0.

This patch was originally part of V5 patch #4.

Along with the other patches, I have done bootstraps on a little endian power8
system, and there were no regressions in the test suite.  I have built both
Spec 2006 and Spec 2017 with all of these patches installed using -mcpu=future,
and there were no failures.  Can I check this into the trunk?

Note, I may have limited email access on October 17th and 18th, 2019.

	* config/rs6000/predicates.md (lwa_operand): If the bottom two
	bits of the offset for the memory address are non-zero, use PLWA
	if prefixed instructions are available.
