I would rewrite part of your comment as

> +;; movt/movw is preferable, because it usually executes faster than a load

"However if the default is to prefer to use movw/movt rather than the
constant pool use that. instead of a load from the constant pool."

Is there a special reason to restrict it to SYMBOL_REF?
Doesn't the same issue occur with, e.g.
(const (plus (symbol_ref const_int))) or label_ref?

Hi!
We have added splits for symbol_ref plus const and label_ref.  With
this patch, assembly code and oprofile data look better,
but on SPEC2K INT it's about 3% slower than with split for only symbol_refs.
We will try to find later why this happens.
For now, we commited the original patch.
