See below for revised patch (currently for mainline):
- FAIL if count is not a CONST_INT
- handle count == 0 (nothing to do)
- handle count > 32767 (negative in RTL, mask with 0xffff)
- minor formatting fixes
But, I'm still concerned a little about the variable block size:
- __tmp_reg__ will not be used (some other register will)
- more importantly, can the problem from this PR (unable to find a register
to spill in class POINTER_REGS) still occur in the variable size case?
(only with a different, not yet known test case - this means we are
perhaps trying to hide the real bug instead of fixing it...)
If we have to handle the variable count case too, one more insn will
be needed (initially jump to decrementing the counter; test for carry
instead of zero). Some other targets handle this by calling a subroutine
in libgcc.S - smaller (but slower) than generating the loop inline.
