Hi nadav,
According to Intel Software Optimization Manual on Silvermont in some cases LEA is better to be replaced with ADD instructions:
"The rule of thumb for ADDs and LEAs is that it is justified to use LEA with a valid index and/or displacement for non-destructive destination purposes (especially useful for stack offset cases), or to use a SCALE. Otherwise, ADD(s) are preferable."
Attached patch replaces such LEAs with ADD instructions.
