# Use conditional form of branch and link to avoid destroying the cpu
# link stack used to predict blr return addresses.
#
# * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc32/makecontext.S: Use
# conditional form of branch and link when obtaining pc.
# * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/powerpc/powerpc64/makecontext.S: Likewise.
