[PATCH] RISC-V: Legitimise the const0_rtx for RVV load/store address

[PATCH] RISC-V: Legitimise the const0_rtx for RVV load/store address

[pan2.li]

From: Pan Li <pan2.li@intel.com>

This patch try to legitimise the const0_rtx (aka zero register)
as the base register for the RVV load/store instructions.

For example:
vint32m1_t test_vle32_v_i32m1_shortcut (size_t vl)
{
  return __riscv_vle32_v_i32m1 ((int32_t *)0, vl);
}

Before this patch:
li      a5,0
vsetvli zero,a1,e32,m1,ta,ma
vle32.v v24,0(a5)  <- can propagate the const 0 to a5 here
vs1r.v  v24,0(a0)

After this patch:
vsetvli zero,a1,e32,m1,ta,ma
vle32.v v24,0(zero)
vs1r.v  v24,0(a0)

As above, this patch allow you to propagaate the const 0 (aka zero
register) to the base register of the RVV Unit-Stride load in the
combine pass. This may benefit the underlying RVV auto-vectorization.

However, the indexed load failed to perform the optimization and it
will be token care of in another PATCH.

gcc/ChangeLog:

	* config/riscv/riscv.cc (riscv_classify_address): Allow
	  const0_rtx for the RVV load/store.

gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* gcc.target/riscv/rvv/base/zero_base_load_store_optimization.c: New test.

The example is kind of counter intuitive to me, I know it's legal from
ISA spec level, but can't understand why it's useful...until I saw you
mention auto vec and index load - I realized this is optimization for
gather/scatter code gen.

[Li, Pan2]

Thanks Kito. It comes from some experience of Ju-Zhe for auto vectorization in previous.
