GCC has optimized this using the exact same code since 4.7 or 4.8.
Android building falls back to the __linux__ route.
No need to keep these around anymore since we aren't building on an old GCC version.
Before this commit, the two were reversed ("cpu_string" had the brand, e.g. "AuthenticAMD"; and "brand_string" had the CPU type, e.g. "AMD Phenom II X4 925").
This is good hygiene, and also happens to be required to build Dolphin
using Clang modules.
(Under this setup, each header file becomes a module, and each #include
is automatically translated to a module import. Recursive includes
still leak through (by default), but modules are compiled independently,
and can't depend on defines or types having previously been set up. The
main reason to retrofit it onto Dolphin is compilation performance - no
more textual includes whatsoever, rather than putting a few blessed
common headers into a PCH. Unfortunately, I found multiple Clang bugs
while trying to build Dolphin this way, so it's not ready yet, but I can
start with this prerequisite.)
I found it via clang complaining about a useless null check on an array,
but I decided to get rid of the array in favor of dynamic allocation, as
there was no reason to assume a maximum length of 0x32 bytes. Plus, add
a CFString type check just in case, and switch to UTF-8 in the
off-chance it matters.
The result has not actually been tested, as I have no CD drive.
It only ever did anything on 32-bit OS X.
Anyway, it wasn't even on the right functions, and these days
ABI_PushRegistersAndAdjustStack should handle maintaining the ABI
correctly.
This helps us avoid accidentally clobbering flags between two instructions
when the flags are expected to be maintained. Dolphin will of course crash
immediately, but at least it will crash loudly and alert us of the mistake,
instead of forcing hours of bisecting to find the subtle way in which the JIT
has managed to sneak a flag-modifying instruction where there shouldn't be one.
This is inconsistent with how other containers are used (i.e. with Do()), but making std::array be used with Do() seems rather confusing when there's also a DoArray available.
