I'll note if I configure my gcc as a --target=powerpc64-linux (instead of
--target=powerpc-linux) and compile this test case with -O2 -m32 -mcpu=601,
then LRA goes into an infinite loop.
Similarly for -O2 -m64 -mcpu={power6,power5,power4,...}, LRA goes into a
infinite loop.
It's ok for power7 and after, as we have word sized loads/stores from the FP
registers in power7.
