Of course.  Added ChangeLog entry, build and reg-tested on x86_64-linux.

Thanks,

Arguably the the compiler should do this for us.  *cough*  :-)

The ChangeLog entry (as well a git author) should reflect the patch's
authorship.

Otherwise OK.

Thanks,

Patch

[gdb] Speedup lnp_state_machine::handle_special_opcode

I see for some program at gdb startup:
...
Samples: 102K of event 'cycles:pu', Event count (approx.): 91710925103
Overhead  Command     Shared Object        Symbol
  15.21%  gdb         gdb                  [.]
lnp_state_machine::handle_special
...
where the divisions are the places we stall.  The following
micro-optimizes things but it smells like m_line_header->line_range
is constant, likewise probably m_line_header->maximum_ops_per_instruction
so eventually the divisions could be avoided completely with some
lookup table.

Well.  Micro-optimizing with this patch improves things
(don't expect [load] CSE over the gdbarch_adjust_dwarf2_line call).

Build and reg-tested on x86_64-linux.

gdb/ChangeLog:

2020-02-13  Tom de Vries  <tdevries@suse.de>

	* dwarf2/read.c (lnp_state_machine::handle_special_opcode): Apply CSE
	on expression with division operators.
