ARM has conditional execution for calls, though gcc doesn't seem to take
advantage of this at the moment.  You can enable it by adding (set_attr
"predicable" "yes") to the call_symbol and call_value_symbol patterns in
arm.md; I don't know whether it was left turned off for any particular
reason, or just by some oversight.
