    common implementation of iterative div/mod · f595ec96
    Jeremy Fitzhardinge 提交于
    We have a few instances of the open-coded iterative div/mod loop, used
    when we don't expcet the dividend to be much bigger than the divisor.
    Unfortunately modern gcc's have the tendency to strength "reduce" this
    into a full mod operation, which isn't necessarily any faster, and
    even if it were, doesn't exist if gcc implements it in libgcc.
    
    The workaround is to put a dummy asm statement in the loop to prevent
    gcc from performing the transformation.
    
    This patch creates a single implementation of this loop, and uses it
    to replace the open-coded versions I know about.
