LLVM/Clang doesn't know the VSX registers when compiling with
-mabi=elfv1. Use only registers >= 32 and list them with their Altivec
name.

This description isn't quite right.  The change to the m[tf]vsr insns is a generic bug
fix, and not related to Clang.


I'm not sure if I understood. I'm targeting the Clang problem with this patch, is something else being fixed by this change? AFAICT, the old "mtvsrd 0, %2" and "mfvsrd %0, 0" were correct, I'm just changing from VSR 0 to VSR 32 to allow the clobber with Clang, but GCC doesn't seem to have this limitation with ELFv1.
