The following improvements are accomplished as a result of applying this patch:
- Fixed frame objects' offsets (relative to either the virtual frame pointer or
the stack pointer) are set before instruction selection is completed. There is
no need to wait until Prologue/Epilogue Insertion is run to set them.
- Calculation of final offsets of fixed frame objects is straightforward. It is
no longer necessary to assign negative offsets to fixed objects for incoming
arguments in order to distinguish them from the others.
- Since a fixed object has its relative offset set during instruction
selection, there is no need to conservatively set its alignment to 4.
- It is no longer necessary to reorder non-fixed frame objects in
MipsFrameLowering::adjustMipsStackFrame.

preparation for reversing StackDirection.
Fixed objects are created in the following order:
1. Incoming arguments passed on stack.
2. va_arg objects (include both arguments that are passed in registers and
pointer to the location of the first va_arg argument).
3. $gp restore slot.
4. Outgoing arguments passed on stack.
5. Pointer to alloca'd space.

text section.
Assume the following bit of annotated assembly:
.section .data.rel.ro,"aw",%progbits
.align 2
.LAlpha:
.long startval(GOTOFF)
.text
.align 2
.type main,%function
.align 4
main: ;;; assume "main" starts at offset 0x20
0x0 push {r11, lr}
0x4 movw r0, :lower16:(.LAlpha-(.LBeta+8))
;;; ==> (.AddrOf(.LAlpha) - ((.AddrOf(.LBeta) - .AddrOf(".")) + 8)
;;; ==> (??? - ((16-4) + 8) = -20
0x8 movt r0, :upper16:(.LAlpha-(.LBeta+8))
;;; ==> (.AddrOf(.LAlpha) - ((.AddrOf(.LBeta) - .AddrOf(".")) + 8)
;;; ==> (??? - ((16-8) + 8) = -16
0xc ... blah
.LBeta:
0x10 add r0, pc, r0
0x14 ... blah
.LGamma:
0x18 add r1, pc, r1
Above snippet results in the following relocs in the .o file for the
first pair of movw/movt instructions
00000024 R_ARM_MOVW_PREL_NC .LAlpha
00000028 R_ARM_MOVT_PREL .LAlpha
And the encoded instructions in the .o file for main: must be
00000020 <main>:
20: e92d4800 push {fp, lr}
24: e30f0fec movw r0, #65516 ; 0xffec i.e. -20
28: e34f0ff0 movt r0, #65520 ; 0xfff0 i.e. -16
However, llc (prior to this commit) generates the following sequence
00000020 <main>:
20: e92d4800 push {fp, lr}
24: e30f0fec movw r0, #65516 ; 0xffec - i.e. -20
28: e34f0fff movt r0, #65535 ; 0xffff - i.e. -1
What has to happen in the ArmAsmBackend is that if the relocation is PC
relative, the 16 bits encoded as part of movw and movt must be both addends,
not addresses. It makes sense to encode addresses by right shifting the value
by 16, but the result is incorrect for PIC.
i.e., the right shift by 16 for movt is ONLY valid for the NON-PCRel case.
This change agrees with what GNU as does, and makes the PIC code run.
MC/ARM/elf-movt.s covers this case.

piclabel operand. The operand in the tablegen definition doesn't actually turn
into an MI operand, so it just confuses anything checking the TargetInstrDesc
for the number of operands. It suffices to just have an implicit def of LR.
