H.J,

   Thanks for the info.

   After a quick reading of the PR at 
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=67215,
   I found the problem description is very x86 specific, I still don't 
understand what's
   wrong if we do the following transformation when -fno-plt specified 
on x86-74, thus I
   am not sure whether there is problem exist on aarch64. Can you please 
give more explanation?
