My patch was about fixing the correctness of the emulation regarding the 
use of the PC register as Rn. To my understanding, this is a performance 
optimization that will optimize the register/stack usage.
Yes, its a minor performance and size issue only. When reviewing the
changes I saw that they were adding a few memory accesses which could
have be avoided.
I am not opposed to this in any way but I really think that fixing the 
correctness and optimizing the performance should be in separate 
patches. Also, I already submitted my patch to RMK's patch system, so 
you are a bit late :)
Fair enough :-)
