Testing for specific CPUs has a number of problems, better use subtarget features: - When some tweak is added for a specific CPU it is often desirable for the next version of that CPU as well, yet we often forget to add it. - It is hard to keep track of checks scattered around the target code; Declaring all target specifics together with the CPU in the tablegen file is a clear representation. - Subtarget features can be tweaked from the command line. To discourage people from using CPU checks in the future I removed the isCortexXX(), isCyclone(), ... functions. I added an getProcFamily() function for exceptional circumstances but made it clear in the comment that usage is discouraged. Reformat feature list in AArch64.td to have 1 feature per line in alphabetical order to simplify merging and sorting for out of tree tweaks. No functional change intended.
