This is always a valid transformation.
i.e. the memory reference is moved to before the call to _Jv_InitClass.
There is no memory reference in the above case, it seems just the address
of _CD_java_text_Collator is taken.
Or maybe I'm missing sth?
In the RTL code it moves the mem ref, not just the address:
(call (mem:QI (symbol_ref:DI ("_Jv_InitClass") [flags 0x41]
(set (reg/f:DI 95 [ #ref#8#1 ])
(mem/s/u/f/j:DI (const:DI (plus:DI (symbol_ref:DI
("_CD_java_text_Collator")
(const_int 16 [0x10])))
is turned to:
(set (reg/f:DI 162 [ #ref#8#1 ])
(mem/s/u/f/j:DI (const:DI (plus:DI (symbol_ref:DI
("_CD_java_text_Collator")
(const_int 16 [0x10])))
...
(call (mem:QI (symbol_ref:DI ("_Jv_InitClass")
This is still fine. The memory is in the GOT, and is known to contain a
stable value throughout the lifetime of the program. Which is why we
don't model this as a memory load until we absolutely have to.
