commit 4e0cf924e52d2e5d6f24d01576625d8274da98ac
Author: Michael Meissner <meissner@linux.ibm.com>

Add xvrlw support.
This patch adds support for a possible new variant of the vector rotate left
instruction that might be added to a future PowerPC. This variant (xvrlw) can
use any VSX register instead of requiring only Altivec registers.
As a potential test, add other variants of vxvrl<x> enabled with the -mxvrld option.

gcc/
* config/rs6000/altivec.md (xvrlw): New insn.
(test_xvrl<VI_char>): Add test insns.
* config/rs6000/rs6000.h (TARGET_XVRLD): New macro.
gcc/testsuite/
* gcc.target/powerpc/vector-rotate-left.c: New test.
