Christophe Leroy 41d65207de powerpc/atomics: Use immediate operand when possible
Today we get the following code generation for atomic operations:

	c001bb2c:	39 20 00 01 	li      r9,1
	c001bb30:	7d 40 18 28 	lwarx   r10,0,r3
	c001bb34:	7d 09 50 50 	subf    r8,r9,r10
	c001bb38:	7d 00 19 2d 	stwcx.  r8,0,r3

	c001c7a8:	39 40 00 01 	li      r10,1
	c001c7ac:	7d 00 18 28 	lwarx   r8,0,r3
	c001c7b0:	7c ea 42 14 	add     r7,r10,r8
	c001c7b4:	7c e0 19 2d 	stwcx.  r7,0,r3

By allowing GCC to choose between immediate or regular operation,
we get:

	c001bb2c:	7d 20 18 28 	lwarx   r9,0,r3
	c001bb30:	39 49 ff ff 	addi    r10,r9,-1
	c001bb34:	7d 40 19 2d 	stwcx.  r10,0,r3
	--
	c001c7a4:	7d 40 18 28 	lwarx   r10,0,r3
	c001c7a8:	39 0a 00 01 	addi    r8,r10,1
	c001c7ac:	7d 00 19 2d 	stwcx.  r8,0,r3

For "and", the dot form has to be used because "andi" doesn't exist.

For logical operations we use unsigned 16 bits immediate.
For arithmetic operations we use signed 16 bits immediate.

On pmac32_defconfig, it reduces the text by approx another 8 kbytes.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
