    LoongArch: Avoid non-returning indirect jumps through $ra [PR110136]
    
    Micro-architecture unconditionally treats a "jr $ra" as "return from subroutine",
    hence doing "jr $ra" would interfere with both subroutine return prediction and
    the more general indirect branch prediction.
    
    Therefore, a problem like PR110136 can cause a significant increase in branch error
    prediction rate and affect performance. The same problem exists with "indirect_jump".

            PR target/110136
            * config/loongarch/loongarch.md: Modify the register constraints for template
            "jumptable" and "indirect_jump" from "r" to "e".
