intrinsics.
Modified llvm.readio and llvm.writeio to use pointers to memory instead
of integers. This should take care of problems such as different pointer
sizes, casting integers to pointers, weird architectural pointer types, etc.
Re-worded the description of llvm.readio and llvm.writeio so that it should
be more clear as to why they should be used over regular loads/stores for
I/O.

SCC passes much more useful. In particular, this should fix the incredibly
stupid missed inlining opportunities that the inliner suffered from.

of the fucom[p][p] instructions. This allows us to code generate this function
bool %test(double %X, double %Y) {
%C = setlt double %Y, %X
ret bool %C
}
... into:
test:
fld QWORD PTR [%ESP + 4]
fld QWORD PTR [%ESP + 12]
fucomip %ST(1)
fstp %ST(0)
setb %AL
movsx %EAX, %AL
ret
where before we generated:
test:
fld QWORD PTR [%ESP + 4]
fld QWORD PTR [%ESP + 12]
fucompp
** fnstsw
** sahf
setb %AL
movsx %EAX, %AL
ret
The two marked instructions (which are the ones eliminated) are very bad,
because they serialize execution of the processor. These instructions are
available on the PPRO and later, but since we already use cmov's we aren't
losing any portability.
I retained the old code for the day when we decide we want to support back
to the 386.

If the source of the cast is a load, we can just use the source memory location,
without having to create a temporary stack slot entry.
Before we code generated this:
double %int(int* %P) {
%V = load int* %P
%V2 = cast int %V to double
ret double %V2
}
into:
int:
sub %ESP, 4
mov %EAX, DWORD PTR [%ESP + 8]
mov %EAX, DWORD PTR [%EAX]
mov DWORD PTR [%ESP], %EAX
fild DWORD PTR [%ESP]
add %ESP, 4
ret
Now we produce this:
int:
mov %EAX, DWORD PTR [%ESP + 4]
fild DWORD PTR [%EAX]
ret
... which is nicer.

for mul and div.
Instead of generating this:
test_divr:
fld QWORD PTR [%ESP + 4]
fld QWORD PTR [.CPItest_divr_0]
fdivrp %ST(1)
ret
We now generate this:
test_divr:
fld QWORD PTR [%ESP + 4]
fdivr QWORD PTR [.CPItest_divr_0]
ret
This code desperately needs refactoring, which will come in the next
patch.

instructions use. This doesn't change any functionality except that long
constant expressions of these operations will now magically start working.
llvm-svn: 12840
fld QWORD PTR [%ESP + 4]
fadd QWORD PTR [.CPItest_add_0]
instead of:
fld QWORD PTR [%ESP + 4]
fld QWORD PTR [.CPItest_add_0]
faddp %ST(1)
I also intend to do this for mul & div, but it appears that I have to
refactor a bit of code before I can do so.
This is tested by: test/Regression/CodeGen/X86/fp_constant_op.llx

1. If an incoming argument is dead, don't load it from the stack
2. Do not code gen noop copies at all (ie, cast int -> uint), not even to
a move. This should reduce register pressure for allocators that are
unable to coallesce away these copies in some cases.
