Summary:
In preparation for changing GlobalsAA to stop assuming that intrinsics
can't read arbitrary globals, we need to make sure GlobalsAA is querying
function attributes rather than relying on this assumption.

constant hoisting. It not only takes into account the number of uses and the
cost of expressions in which constants appear, but now also the resulting
integer range of the offsets. Thus, the algorithm maximizes the number of uses
within an integer range that will enable more efficient code generation. On
ARM, for example, this will enable code size optimisations because less
negative offsets will be created. Negative offsets/immediates are not supported
by Thumb1 thus preventing more compact instruction encoding.

Treat loads which clip before the start of a global initializer the same
way we treat clipping beyond the end of the initializer: use zeros.

Summary:
This is necessary for D21771. In order to add the hotness attribute to
optimization remarks we need BFI to be available in all passes that emit
optimization remarks.
However we don't want to pay for computing BFI unless the hotness
attribute is requested.
This is achieved by making BFI lazy at the very high-level through a new
analysis pass -- BFI is not calculated unless requested.
I am adding a test to check the laziness under D21771 where the first
user of the analysis is added.

Refactored the profitability analysis out of the IC promotion pass and
into lib/Analysis so that it can be accessed by the summary index
builder in a follow-on patch to enable IC promotion in ThinLTO (D21932).

This patch simplifies the graph builder by encoding nodes as {Value,
Dereference Level} pairs. This lets us kill edge types, and allows us to
get rid of hacks in StratifiedSets (like addAttrsBelow/...). This
simplification also allows us to remove InstantiatedRelations and
InstantiatedAttrs.

Summary:
For sample-based PGO, using BFI to calculate callsite count is sometime not accurate. This is because with sampling based approach, if a callsite resides in a hot loop deeply nested in a bunch of cold branches, the callsite's BFI frequency would be inaccurately calculated due to lack of samples in the cold branch.
E.g.
if (A1 && A2 && A3 && ..... && A10) {
for (i=0; i < 100000000; i++) {
callsite();
}
}
Assume that A1 to A100 are all 100% taken, and callsite has 1000 samples and thus is considerred hot. Because the loop's trip count is huge, it's normal that all branches outside the loop has no sample at all. As a result, we can only use static branch probability to derive the the frequency of the loop header. Assuming that static heuristic thinks each branch is 50% taken, then the count calculated from BFI will be 1/(2^10) of the actual value.
In order to get more accurate callsite count, we directly annotate the weight on the call instruction, and directly use it when checking callsite hotness.
Note that this mechanism can also be shared by instrumentation based callsite hotness analysis. The side benefit is that it breaks the dependency from Inliner to BFI as call count is embedded in the IR.

This subtle change to getModRefInfo(Instruction, ImmutableCallSite) is to
ensure that the semantics are equal to that of getModRefInfo(CS1, CS2) when
the Instruction is a call-site.
This is now more in line with getModRefInfo generally: it returns Mod when
I modifies a memory location that is accessed (read or written) by CS and
Ref when I reads a memory location that is written by CS.
From a grep of the code, the only uses of this particular getModRefInfo
overload are in MemorySSA and MemCpyOptimizer, and they only care about
where the result is MR_NoModRef or not. Therefore, this change should have
no visible effect.
Separated out from D17279 upon request.

Motivated by the work on the llvm.noalias intrinsic, teach BasicAA to look

This removes a few fields from the graph builder by making us compute

We can fold truncs whose operand feeds from a load, if the trunc value
is available through a prior load/store.
This change is from: http://reviews.llvm.org/D21246, which folded the
trunc but missed the bitcast or ptrtoint/inttoptr required in the RAUW
call, when the load type didnt match the prior load/store type.

Based on the experiments Sean Silva and Reid did, this seems the safest
course of action and also will work around a questionable warning
provided by GCC6 on the old form of the code. Thanks for Davide pointing
out the issue and other suggesting ways to fix.

StratifiedSets (as implemented) is very fast, but its accuracy is also
limited. If we take a more aggressive andersens-like approach, we can be
way more accurate, but we'll also end up being slower.
So, we've decided to split CFLAA into CFLSteensAA and CFLAndersAA.
Long-term, we want to end up in a place where CFLSteens is queried
first; if it can provide an answer, great (since queries are basically
map lookups). Otherwise, we'll fall back to CFLAnders, BasicAA, etc.
This patch splits everything out so we can try to do something like
that when we get a reasonable CFLAnders implementation.
