For PowerPC instruction "addi", use constraint "b".
Without "b", a variant of the tas() code miscompiles on macOS 10.4. This may also fix a compilation failure involving macOS 10.1. Today's compilers have been allocating acceptable registers with or without this change, but this future-proofs the code by precisely conveying the acceptable registers. Back-patch to 9.4 (all supported versions). Reviewed by Tom Lane. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/20191009063900.GA4066266@rfd.leadboat.com

* The second operand of addi can hold a constant zero or a register number,
|
||||
* hence constraint "=&b" to avoid allocating r0. "b" stands for "address
|

* base register"; most operands having this register-or-zero property are

* address bases, e.g. the second operand of lwax.

* NOTE: per the Enhanced PowerPC Architecture manual, v1.0 dated 7-May-2002,
|
||||
* an isync is a sufficient synchronization barrier after a lwarx/stwcx loop.
|
||||
* On newer machines, we can use lwsync instead for better performance.
