rather than 'unsigned' for their costs.
For something like costs in particular there is a natural "negative"
value, that of savings or saved cost. As a consequence, there is a lot
of code that subtracts or creates negative values based on cost, all of
which is prone to awkwardness or bugs when dealing with an unsigned
type. Similarly, we *never* want these values to wrap, as that would
cause Very Bad code generation (likely percieved as an infinite loop as
we try to emit over 2^32 instructions or some such insanity).
All around 'int' seems a much better fit for these basic metrics. I've
added asserts to ensure that at least the TTI interface never returns
negative numbers here. If we ever have a use case for negative numbers,
we can remove this, but this way a bug where someone used '-1' to
produce a 'very large' cost will be caught by the assert.
This passes all tests, and is also UBSan clean.
No functional change intended.

Enable partial and runtime loop unrolling for NVPTX backend via
TTI::UnrollingPreferences with a small threshold. This partially unrolls
small loops which are often unrolled by the PTX to SASS compiler
and unrolling earlier can be beneficial.

Summary:
Following the discussion on r241884, it's more reasonable to assume that a
target has no vector registers by default instead of letting every such
target overrides getNumberOfRegisters.
Therefore, this patch modifies BasicTTIImpl::getNumberOfRegisters to
return 0 when Vector is true, and partially reverts r241884 which
modifies NVPTXTTIImpl::getNumberOfRegisters.
It also fixes a performance bug in LoopVectorizer. Even if a target has
no vector registers, vectorization may still help ILP. So, we need both
checks to be false before disabling loop vectorization all together.

Summary:
Without this patch, LoopVectorizer in certain cases (see loop-vectorize.ll)
produces code with complex control flow which hurts later optimizations. Since
NVPTX doesn't have vector registers in LLVM's sense
(NVPTXTTI::getRegisterBitWidth(true) == 32), we for now declare no vector
registers to effectively disable loop vectorization.

DataLayout is no longer optional. It was initialized with or without
a DataLayout, and the DataLayout when supplied could have been the
one from the TargetMachine.
Summary:
This change is part of a series of commits dedicated to have a single
DataLayout during compilation by using always the one owned by the
module.

Summary:
Some optimizations such as jump threading and loop unswitching can negatively
affect performance when applied to divergent branches. The divergence analysis
added in this patch conservatively estimates which branches in a GPU program
can diverge. This information can then help LLVM to run certain optimizations
selectively.

now that we have a correct and cached subtarget specific to the
function.
Also, finish providing a cached per-function subtarget in the core
LLVMTargetMachine -- that layer hadn't switched over yet.
The only use of the TargetMachine was to re-lookup a subtarget for
a particular function to work around the fact that TTI was immutable.
Now that it is per-function and we haved a cached subtarget, use it.
This still leaves a few interfaces with real warts on them where we were
passing Function objects through the TTI interface. I'll remove these
and clean their usage up in subsequent commits now that this isn't
necessary.

intermediate TTI implementation template and instead query up to the
derived class for both the TargetMachine and the TargetLowering.
Most of the derived types had a TLI cached already and there is no need
to store a less precisely typed target machine pointer.
This will in turn make it much cleaner to look up the TLI via
a per-function subtarget instead of the generic subtarget, and it will
pave the way toward pulling the subtarget used for unroll preferences
into the same form once we are *always* using the function to look up
the correct subtarget.

null.
For some reason some of the original TTI code supported a null target
machine. This seems to have been legacy, and I made matters worse when
refactoring this code by spreading that pattern further through the
various targets.
The TargetMachine can't actually be null, and it doesn't make sense to
support that use case. I've now consistently removed it and removed all
of the code trying to cope with that situation. This is probably good,
as several targets *didn't* cope with it being null despite the null
default argument in their constructors. =]

base which it adds a single analysis pass to, to instead return the type
erased TargetTransformInfo object constructed for that TargetMachine.
This removes all of the pass variants for TTI. There is now a single TTI
*pass* in the Analysis layer. All of the Analysis <-> Target
communication is through the TTI's type erased interface itself. While
the diff is large here, it is nothing more that code motion to make
types available in a header file for use in a different source file
within each target.
I've tried to keep all the doxygen comments and file boilerplate in line
with this move, but let me know if I missed anything.
With this in place, the next step to making TTI work with the new pass
manager is to introduce a really simple new-style analysis that produces
a TTI object via a callback into this routine on the target machine.
Once we have that, we'll have the building blocks necessary to accept
a function argument as well.
