ARC: [arcompact] entry.S: Elide extra check/branch in exception ret path
This is done by improving the laddering logic !
Before:
if Exception
goto excep_or_pure_k_ret
if !Interrupt(L2)
goto l1_chk
else
INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE 2
l1_chk:
if !Interrupt(L1) (i.e. pure kernel mode)
goto excep_or_pure_k_ret
else
INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE 1
excep_or_pure_k_ret:
EXCEPTION_EPILOGUE
Now:
if !Interrupt(L1 or L2) (i.e. exception or pure kernel mode)
goto excep_or_pure_k_ret
; guaranteed to be an interrupt
if !Interrupt(L2)
goto l1_ret
else
INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE 2
; by virtue of above, no need to chk for L1 active
l1_ret:
INTERRUPT_EPILOGUE 1
excep_or_pure_k_ret:
EXCEPTION_EPILOGUE
