Any instruction, yes. %I<n> simply outputs an "i" if operand n is a
constant integer, and nothing otherwise.

So
asm("add%I2 %0,%1,%2" : "=r"(dst) : "r"(src1), "ri"(src1));
works well. I don't see how you would use it for li/mr... You can do
asm("add%I1 %0,0,%1" : "=r"(dst) : "ri"(src));
I suppose, but that is not really an mr.

I don't know, sorry. But it is used all over the place, see sfp-machine.h
for example, so maybe?
