Hi,

I saw Jeff say ok for patch [PATCH 2/2]
https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2020-December/560833.html.

I'm wondering if we can approval this patch [PATCH 1/2]
https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2020-October/555871.html.
and then I may commit these patches to trunk. :)

Thanks,
Jiufu Guo.
