PowerPC VSX arithmetic tests have been updated to remove inline assembly that forced operands into floating-point registers (FPRs). This change allows the tests to evaluate the compiler’s default instruction selection for future VSX arithmetic instructions, enabling detection of any regressions or unintended changes in instruction generation.
