[Bug c/13162] New: -O2 miscompiles const volatile dependent code

[zwane at arm dot linux dot org dot uk]

Compiling the test case with -O2 will result incorrect code being generated.
This was observed in the Linux Kernel 2.6.0-test8 (possibly earlier) i386
constant_test_bit() function. The following merged patch serves as a suitable
workaround.
