[Bug rtl-optimization/21887] New: missed optimization with globals

[pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org]

In the following code we produce an extra la.

int curr_state_graph_pass_num = 0;
void
pass_states (void)
{
  curr_state_graph_pass_num++;
}

We currently produce at -O2 -mdynamic-no-pic:
_pass_states:
        lis r9,ha16(_curr_state_graph_pass_num)
        la r9,lo16(_curr_state_graph_pass_num)(r9)
        lwz r2,0(r9)
        addi r2,r2,1
        stw r2,0(r9)
        blr

We should be able to produce the following instead:
_pass_states:
        lis r9,ha16(_curr_state_graph_pass_num)
        lwz r2,lo16(_curr_state_graph_pass_num)(r9)
        addi r2,r2,1
        stw r2,lo16(_curr_state_graph_pass_num)(r9)
        blr
