c14a1eda84 Massive rewrite of MMX:
The x86_mmx type is used for MMX intrinsics, parameters and
return values where these use MMX registers, and is also
supported in load, store, and bitcast.

Only the above operations generate MMX instructions, and optimizations
do not operate on or produce MMX intrinsics. 

MMX-sized vectors <2 x i32> etc. are lowered to XMM or split into
smaller pieces.  Optimizations may occur on these forms and the
result casted back to x86_mmx, provided the result feeds into a
previous existing x86_mmx operation.

The point of all this is prevent optimizations from introducing
MMX operations, which is unsafe due to the EMMS problem.

39ae78cadb MMX argument passing fixes:
On Darwin / Linux x86-32, v8i8, v4i16, v2i32 values are passed in MM[0-2].                                                                                                                                      
On Darwin / Linux x86-32, v1i64 values are passed in memory.                                                                                                                                                    
On Darwin x86-64, v8i8, v4i16, v2i32 values are passed in XMM[0-7].                                                                                                                                     
On Darwin x86-64, v1i64 values are passed in 64-bit GPRs.
