Good point, agree!

For PR105818, the reason why the flag changs is that:

Firstly, the inconsistent flag is OPTION_MASK_SAVE_TOC_INDIRECT bit
of rs6000_isa_flags_explicit, it's set as below:

/* If we can shrink-wrap the TOC register save separately, then use
   -msave-toc-indirect unless explicitly disabled.  */
if ((rs6000_isa_flags_explicit & OPTION_MASK_SAVE_TOC_INDIRECT) == 0
    && flag_shrink_wrap_separate
    && optimize_function_for_speed_p (cfun))
  rs6000_isa_flags |= OPTION_MASK_SAVE_TOC_INDIRECT;

Initially, rs6000 initialize target_option_default_node with
OPTION_MASK_SAVE_TOC_INDIRECT unset, at that time cfun is NULL
and optimize_size is true.

Later, when c parser handling function foo, it builds target
option node as target_option_default_node in function
handle_optimize_attribute, it does global option saving and
verifying there as well, at that time the cfun is NULL, no
issue is found.  And function store_parm_decls allocates
struct_function for foo then, cfun becomes function struct
for foo, when c parser continues to handle the decl bar in
foo, function handle_optimize_attribute works as before,
tries to restore the target options at the end, it calls
targetm.target_option.restore (rs6000_function_specific_restore)
which calls function rs6000_option_override_internal again,
at this time the cfun is not NULL while there is no cgraph
node for its decl, optimize_function_for_speed_p returns true
and gets the OPTION_MASK_SAVE_TOC_INDIRECT bit of flag
rs6000_isa_flags set unexpectedly.  It becomes inconsistent
as the one saved previously.

IMHO, both contexts of global and function decl foo here hold
optimize_size, function optimize_function_for_speed_p should
not return true anyway.

btw, the aarch64 failed case also gets the unexpected
result for optimize_function_for_speed_p during c parsing
(fold_range_test <- ... <- c_parser_condition).

IIUC, in parsing time we don't have the profile information
available.
