must be called in the pass's constructor. This function uses static dependency declarations to recursively initialize
the pass's dependencies.
Clients that only create passes through the createFooPass() APIs will require no changes. Clients that want to use the
CommandLine options for passes will need to manually call the appropriate initialization functions in PassInitialization.h
before parsing commandline arguments.
I have tested this with all standard configurations of clang and llvm-gcc on Darwin. It is possible that there are problems
with the static dependencies that will only be visible with non-standard options. If you encounter any crash in pass
registration/creation, please send the testcase to me directly.

a virtual register to eliminate a frame index, it can return that register
and the constant stored there to PEI to track. When scavenging to allocate
for those registers, PEI then tracks the last-used register and value, and
if it is still available and matches the value for the next index, reuses
the existing value rather and removes the re-materialization instructions.
Fancier tracking and adjustment of scavenger allocations to keep more
values live for longer is possible, but not yet implemented and would likely
be better done via a different, less special-purpose, approach to the
problem.
eliminateFrameIndex() is modified so the target implementations can return
the registers they wish to be tracked for reuse.
ARM Thumb1 implements and utilizes the new mechanism. All other targets are
simply modified to adjust for the changed eliminateFrameIndex() prototype.

interest for this, as it currently reserves a register rather than using
the scavenger for matierializing constants as needed.
Instead of scavenging registers on the fly while eliminating frame indices,
new virtual registers are created, and then a scavenged collectively in a
post-pass over the function. This isolates the bits that need to interact
with the scavenger, and sets the stage for more intelligent use, and reuse,
of scavenged registers.
For the time being, this is disabled by default. Once the bugs are worked out,
the current scavenging calls in replaceFrameIndices() will be removed and
the post-pass scavenging will be the default. Until then,
-enable-frame-index-scavenging enables the new code. Currently, only the
Thumb1 back end is set up to use it.
