Sorry if this late coming back to this patch but I did not see any use
full for it until just recently. I noticed that small C testcases
are slowed down because each time we add a new builtin because a
call to decode_reg_name shows up even though we know that they cannot
be register names at all.
Here is the new patch which fixes based on your comments.

OK? Bootstrapped and tested on ppc-darwin.

Thanks,
Andrew Pinski

ChangeLog:
	* varasm.c (decode_reg_name): Revert change to check for zero
	length strings.
	(make_decl_rtl): Make sure that we call decode_reg_name only
	when needed.
