You don't need to load r9 with 0, use cmplwi instead.

You should leave space between the compare and the branch (i.e. have 
other instructions inbetween when possible), so that the processor can 
prepare the branching and do a good prediction. Same as the compare 
below, you see that there are two other instructions between the cmplw 
are the blt. You can eventually use another cr field than cr0 in order 
to nest several test/branches.
Also because on recent powerpc32, instructions are fetched and executed 
two by two.
