Subject: [PATCH] tcg: Limit the number of ops in a TB
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

In 6001f7729e12 we partially attempt to address the branch
displacement overflow caused by 15fa08f845.

However, gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/aarch64/advsimd-intrinsics/vqtbX.c
is a testcase that contains a TB so large as to overflow anyway.
The limit here of 8000 ops produces a maximum output TB size of
24112 bytes on a ppc64le host with that test case.  This is still
much less than the maximum forward branch distance of 32764 bytes.
