The order of registers returned by getCalleeSavedRegs is used to lay out
the fixed stack slots for CSRs. Some targets like their CSRs used from
one end, and some targets want them used from the other end.
When computing an allocation order, simply preserve the relative
ordering of CSRs that the target specifies in its allocation order.
Reordering CSRs would break some targets, ARM in particular.
We still place volatiles before the CSRs, providing slightly better
results with different calling conventions.

I was confused whether new uint8_t[] would zero-initialize the returned
array, and it seems that so is gcc-4.0.
This should fix the test failures on darwin 9.

register classes.
It provides information for each register class that cannot be
determined statically, like:
- The number of allocatable registers in a class after filtering out the
reserved and invalid registers.
- The preferred allocation order with registers that overlap callee-saved
registers last.
- The last callee-saved register that overlaps a given physical register.
This information usually doesn't change between functions, so it is
reused for compiling multiple functions when possible. The many
possible combinations of reserved and callee saves registers makes it
unfeasible to compute this information statically in TableGen.
Use RegisterClassInfo to count available registers in various heuristics
in SimpleRegisterCoalescing, making the pass run 4% faster.
