[PATCH] powerpc: slightly improve cache helpers
From: Christophe Leroy
Date: Tue May 07 2019 - 09:32:34 EST
Cache instructions (dcbz, dcbi, dcbf and dcbst) take two registers
that are summed to obtain the target address. Using '%y0' argument
gives GCC the opportunity to use both registers instead of only one
with the second being forced to 0.
