powerpc/time: Optimise decrementer_check_overflow
decrementer_check_overflow is called from arch_local_irq_restore so
we want to make it as light weight as possible. As such, turn
decrementer_check_overflow into an inline function.
To avoid a circular mess of includes, separate out the two components
of struct decrementer_clock and keep the struct clock_event_device
part local to time.c.
The fast path improves from:
arch_local_irq_restore
0: mflr r0
4: std r0,16(r1)
8: stdu r1,-112(r1)
c: stb r3,578(r13)
10: cmpdi cr7,r3,0
14: beq- cr7,24 <.arch_local_irq_restore+0x24>
...
24: addi r1,r1,112
28: ld r0,16(r1)
2c: mtlr r0
30: blr
to:
arch_local_irq_restore
0: std r30,-16(r1)
4: ld r30,0(r2)
8: stb r3,578(r13)
c: cmpdi cr7,r3,0
10: beq- cr7,6c <.arch_local_irq_restore+0x6c>
...
6c: ld r30,-16(r1)
70: blr
Unfortunately we still setup a local TOC (due to -mminimal-toc). Yet
another sign we should be moving to -mcmodel=medium.
