The current pressure scheduler doesn't appear to correctly track register
pressure and avoid creating unnecessary spills when register pressure is high.
As a result disabling the early scheduler improves integer performance
considerably and reduces codesize as a bonus. Since scheduling floating point
code is generally beneficial (more registers and higher latencies), only enable
the pressure scheduler with -Ofast.

On Cortex-A57 this gives a 0.7% performance gain on SPECINT2006 as well
as a 0.2% codesize reduction.

Bootstrapped on armhf. OK for commit?

	* gcc/common/config/arm-common.c (arm_option_optimization_table):
	Enable fsched_pressure with Ofast only.
