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.

edited during emission.
If the basic block ends in a switch that gets lowered to a jump table, any
phis at the default edge were getting updated wrong. The jump table data
structure keeps a pointer to the header blocks that wasn't getting updated
after the MBB is split.
This bug was exposed on 32-bit Linux when disabling critical edge splitting in
codegen prepare.
The fix is to uipdate stale MBB pointers whenever a block is split during
emission.

when the unconditional branch destination is the fallthrough block. The
canonicalization makes it easier to allow optimizations on DAGs to invert
conditional branches. The branch folding pass (and AnalyzeBranch) will clean up
the unnecessary unconditional branches later.
This is one of the patches leading up to disabling codegen prepare critical edge
splitting.

I think I've audited all uses, so it should be dependable for address spaces,
and the pointer+offset info should also be accurate when there.

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
