expanding: e.g. <2 x float> -> <4 x float> instead of -> 2 floats. This
affects two places in the code: handling cross block values and handling
function return and arguments. Since vectors are already widened by
legalizetypes, this gives us much better code and unblocks x86-64 abi
and SPU abi work.
For example, this (which is a silly example of a cross-block value):
define <4 x float> @test2(<4 x float> %A) nounwind {
%B = shufflevector <4 x float> %A, <4 x float> undef, <2 x i32> <i32 0, i32 1>
%C = fadd <2 x float> %B, %B
br label %BB
BB:
%D = fadd <2 x float> %C, %C
%E = shufflevector <2 x float> %D, <2 x float> undef, <4 x i32> <i32 0, i32 1, i32 undef, i32 undef>
ret <4 x float> %E
}
Now compiles into:
_test2: ## @test2
## BB#0:
addps %xmm0, %xmm0
addps %xmm0, %xmm0
ret
previously it compiled into:
_test2: ## @test2
## BB#0:
addps %xmm0, %xmm0
pshufd $1, %xmm0, %xmm1
## kill: XMM0<def> XMM0<kill> XMM0<def>
insertps $0, %xmm0, %xmm0
insertps $16, %xmm1, %xmm0
addps %xmm0, %xmm0
ret

hierarchy with virtual methods and using llvm_unreachable to properly indicate
unreachable states which would otherwise leave variables uninitialized.

it involves specific floating-point types, legalize should expand an
extending load to a non-extending load followed by a separate extend operation.
For example, we currently expand SEXTLOAD to EXTLOAD+SIGN_EXTEND_INREG (and
assert that EXTLOAD should always be supported). Now we can expand that to
LOAD+SIGN_EXTEND. This is needed to allow vector SIGN_EXTEND and ZERO_EXTEND
to be used for NEON.

protectors, to be near the stack protectors on the stack. Accomplish this by
tagging the stack object with a predicate that indicates that it would trigger
this. In the prolog-epilog inserter, assign these objects to the stack after the
stack protector but before the other objects.

appropriate for targets without detailed instruction iterineries.
The scheduler schedules for increased instruction level parallelism in
low register pressure situation; it schedules to reduce register pressure
when the register pressure becomes high.
On x86_64, this is a win for all tests in CFP2000. It also sped up 256.bzip2
by 16%.

it's too late to start backing off aggressive latency scheduling when most
of the registers are in use so the threshold should be a bit tighter.
- Correctly handle live out's and extract_subreg etc.
- Enable register pressure aware scheduling by default for hybrid scheduler.
For ARM, this is almost always a win on # of instructions. It's runtime
neutral for most of the tests. But for some kernels with high register
pressure it can be a huge win. e.g. 464.h264ref reduced number of spills by
54 and sped up by 20%.
