Hi

https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2015-01/msg00802.html

Philipp when you deal with Ramana's request above to split
load1->load1/prefetch in the existing schedulers I suggest you also
split it in aarch64/thunderx.md in order to retain existing behaviour.
Andrew can then follow up add the "right" behaviour when he is ready.
Andrew OK ?

Cheers
