[PATCH v1 2/3] LoongArch: BPF: Remove dead move_imm() call in BPF_NEG path
From: Tiezhu Yang
Date: Sat Jul 11 2026 - 06:11:45 EST
The BPF_NEG operation is a unary operator that performs `dst = -dst`.
The current code unconditionally executes a move_imm() call before the
subtraction, generating useless JITted instructions to load data into
the temporary register `t1`. This `t1` register is never used anywhere
else in the entire BPF_NEG path.
Remove this dead `move_imm()` call to avoid useless instructions.
