Do you have a link to a GCC commit or bugzilla? (for future reference, no need to update the patch). The series looks fine to me. Reviewed-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>

I found these: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=94697 https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2020-April/544429.html > The series looks fine to me. > Reviewed-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Thanks.
