Can we use r11 instead? eg:

_GLOBAL(_mcount)
	mflr	r11
	mtctr	r11
	mtlr	r0
	bctr

Otherwise I worry the std/ld is going to cause a load-hit-store. And it's just
plain more instructions too.

I don't quite grok the gcc code enough to tell if that's always safe, GCC does
use r11 sometimes, but I don't think it ever expects it to survive across
_mcount()?

AFAICS these end up being the only instructions shared between the two
versions. Which I don't think is worth the semantic burden of all the #ifdefs.
So please just write it as two separate functions, one for
CC_USING_MPROFILE_KERNEL and one for not.

That is "PPC_INST_NOP".

Can you please break that out into a static inline, with separate versions for
the two cases.

We should aim for no #ifdefs inside functions.

Again I'd rather that was in a helper static inline.

And some #defines for the instructions would also help.
