PR96493, powerpc local call linkage failure
This corrects current_file_function_operand, an operand predicate used
to determine whether a symbol_ref is safe to use with the local_call
patterns. Calls between pcrel and non-pcrel code need to go via
linker stubs. In the case of non-pcrel code to pcrel the stub saves
r2 but there needs to be a nop after the branch for the r2 restore.
So the local_call patterns can't be used there. For pcrel code to
non-pcrel the local_call patterns could still be used, but I thought
it better to not use them since the call isn't direct. Code generated
by the corresponding call_nonlocal_aix for pcrel is identical anyway.
Incidentally, without the TREE_CODE () == FUNCTION_DECL test,
gcc.c-torture/compile/pr37433.c and pr37433-1.c ICE. Also, if you
make the test more strict by disallowing an op without a
SYMBOL_REF_DECL then a bunch of go and split-stack tests fail. That's
because a prologue call to __morestack can't have a following nop.
(__morestack calls its caller at a fixed offset from the __morestack
call!)
