The instructions addis,addi, bl are used to calculate the address of TLS thread
local variables. These TLS access code sequences are generated repeatedly every
time the thread local variable is accessed. By communicating to Machine CSE that
X2 is guaranteed to have the same value within the same function call (so called
Caller Preserved Physical Register), the redundant TLS access code sequences are
cleaned up.
