Another thing I've noticed...
Cases such as:

        mov.l   r0,@r2        ! LS
        mov     r13,r0        ! MT
        and     #7,r0         ! EX
        tst     r0,r0         ! MT
        bt/s    .L8           ! BR
        mov.l   r0,@(16,r1)

where the result of the and op is re-used would be slightly better as:

        mov.l   r0,@r2       ! LS
        mov     r13,r0       ! MT
        tst     #7,r0        ! MT
        and     #7,r0        ! EX
        bt/s    .L8          ! BR
        mov.l   r0,@(16,r1)

because it reduces dependency on the result of the and op and thus has a higher
chance to be executed in parallel.
