Sami Tolvanen 5dc8aaac39 [llvm][IR] Add no_cfi constant
With Control-Flow Integrity (CFI), the LowerTypeTests pass replaces
function references with CFI jump table references, which is a problem
for low-level code that needs the address of the actual function body.

For example, in the Linux kernel, the code that sets up interrupt
handlers needs to take the address of the interrupt handler function
instead of the CFI jump table, as the jump table may not even be mapped
into memory when an interrupt is triggered.

This change adds the no_cfi constant type, which wraps function
references in a value that LowerTypeTestsModule::replaceCfiUses does not
replace.

These are syntax highlighting files for the Emacs and XEmacs editors. Included
are:

* llvm-mode.el

  Syntax highlighting mode for LLVM assembly files. To use, add this code to
  your ~/.emacs :

  (setq load-path
    (cons (expand-file-name "path-to-llvm/utils/emacs") load-path))
  (require 'llvm-mode)
  
* tablegen-mode.el

  Syntax highlighting mode for TableGen description files. To use, add this code
  to your ~/.emacs:

  (setq load-path
    (cons (expand-file-name "path-to-llvm/utils/emacs") load-path))
  (require 'tablegen-mode)


Note: If you notice missing or incorrect syntax highlighting, please contact
