[PATCH] ARM: Don't disable SRA optimization on recent GCC
From: Fieah Lim
Date: Thu Sep 13 2018 - 06:38:45 EST
The issue addressed by
commit a077224fd35b ("ARM: 8429/1: disable GCC SRA optimization")
has been fixed in GCC version 5.4 and later:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=65932#c33
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=commit;h=7fa02f018da21445e1b93eb89cd29ecbbb98617f
Since ARM/Linaro is releasing latest GNU Toolchain for ARM
(up to version 8.2.1 till this date), we should only disable this
when compiling with GCC version <= 5.3
This patch add a GCC version check before passing -fno-ipa-sra
and remove two unnecessary # in the comment block.
