[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] target-mips: simplify LWL/LDL mask generation

[Aurelien Jarno <aurelien@aurel32.net>]

The LWL/LDL instructions mask the GPR with a mask depending on the
address alignement. It is currently computed by doing:

    mask = 0x7fffffffffffffffull >> (t1 ^ 63)

It's simpler to generate it by doing:

    mask = ~(-1 << t1)

It uses one TCG instruction less, and it avoids a 32/64-bit constant
loading which can take a few instructions on RISC hosts.

Changes v1 -> v2:
- Use ~(-1 << t1) instead of (1 << t1) - 1 as suggested by Paolo
  Bonzini.
