boolean flag to an enum: { Fast, Standard, Strict } (default = Standard).
This option controls the creation by optimizations of fused FP ops that store
intermediate results in higher precision than IEEE allows (E.g. FMAs). The
behavior of this option is intended to match the behaviour specified by a
soon-to-be-introduced frontend flag: '-ffuse-fp-ops'.
Fast mode - allows formation of fused FP ops whenever they're profitable.
Standard mode - allow fusion only for 'blessed' FP ops. At present the only
blessed op is the fmuladd intrinsic. In the future more blessed ops may be
added.
Strict mode - allow fusion only if/when it can be proven that the excess
precision won't effect the result.
Note: This option only controls formation of fused ops by the optimizers. Fused
operations that are explicitly requested (e.g. FMA via the llvm.fma.* intrinsic)
will always be honored, regardless of the value of this option.
Internally TargetOptions::AllowExcessFPPrecision has been replaced by
TargetOptions::AllowFPOpFusion.

This patch adds DAG combines to form FMAs from pairs of FADD + FMUL or
FSUB + FMUL. The combines are performed when:
(a) Either
AllowExcessFPPrecision option (-enable-excess-fp-precision for llc)
OR
UnsafeFPMath option (-enable-unsafe-fp-math)
are set, and
(b) TargetLoweringInfo::isFMAFasterThanMulAndAdd(VT) is true for the type of
the FADD/FSUB, and
(c) The FMUL only has one user (the FADD/FSUB).
If your target has fast FMA instructions you can make use of these combines by
overriding TargetLoweringInfo::isFMAFasterThanMulAndAdd(VT) to return true for
types supported by your FMA instruction, and adding patterns to match ISD::FMA
to your FMA instructions.
