[PATCH v2 17/36] MIPS: bitops: Only use ins for bit 16 or higher

From: Paul Burton
Date: Tue Oct 01 2019 - 17:53:41 EST


set_bit() can set bits 0-15 using an ori instruction, rather than
loading the value -1 into a register & then using an ins instruction.

That is, rather than the following:

li t0, -1
ll t1, 0(t2)
ins t1, t0, 4, 1
sc t1, 0(t2)

We can have the simpler:

ll t1, 0(t2)
ori t1, t1, 0x10
sc t1, 0(t2)

The or path already allows immediates to be used, so simply restricting
the ins path to bits that don't fit in immediates is sufficient to take
advantage of this.
