Hi,
Before thumb1_reorg, ARM backend uses peephole to save comparison
instructions when a flag setting move is found before branch instruction.
Since we are using thumb1_reog now, it can be extended to catch more
opportunities by searching flag setting move instruction before branch,
rather than only the exact one before branch. 
For example:

mov r0, r1
//other insns does not kill r0
branch if (r0 == 0)
//other insns

Tested on thumb1, is it OK?

	* config/arm/arm.c (thumb1_reorg): Search for flag setting insn
	before branch in same basic block.  Check both src and dest of
	the move insn.

Sorry for the delay, I've been trying to get my head around this one.

This can't be right.  prev is an insn of some form, so the test that it
is a SET will always fail.

What you need to do here is to initialize 'set' to null before the loop
and then have something like

		|| ((set = single_set (prev)) != NULL

This now becomes redundant and ...

This will be based on the set you extracted above.
