the processor keeps a return addresses stack (RAS) which stores the address
and the instruction execution state of the instruction after a function-call
type branch instruction.
Calling a "noreturn" function with normal call instructions (e.g. bl) can
corrupt RAS and causes 100% return misprediction so LLVM should use a
unconditional branch instead. i.e.
mov lr, pc
b _foo
The "mov lr, pc" is issued in order to get proper backtrace.

The tied source operand of tMUL is the second source operand, not the
first like every other two-address thumb instruction. Special case it
in the size reduction pass to make sure we create the tMUL instruction
properly.

value is zero. Instead of a cmov + op, issue an conditional op instead. e.g.
cmp r9, r4
mov r4, #0
moveq r4, #1
orr lr, lr, r4
should be:
cmp r9, r4
orreq lr, lr, #1
That is, optimize (or x, (cmov 0, y, cond)) to (or.cond x, y). Similarly extend
this to xor as well as (and x, (cmov -1, y, cond)) => (and.cond x, y).
It's possible to extend this to ADD and SUB but I don't think they are common.

Creates a configurable regalloc pipeline.
Ensure specific llc options do what they say and nothing more: -reglloc=... has no effect other than selecting the allocator pass itself. This patch introduces a new umbrella flag, "-optimize-regalloc", to enable/disable the optimizing regalloc "superpass". This allows for example testing coalscing and scheduling under -O0 or vice-versa.
When a CodeGen pass requires the MachineFunction to have a particular property, we need to explicitly define that property so it can be directly queried rather than naming a specific Pass. For example, to check for SSA, use MRI->isSSA, not addRequired<PHIElimination>.
CodeGen transformation passes are never "required" as an analysis
ProcessImplicitDefs does not require LiveVariables.
We have a plan to massively simplify some of the early passes within the regalloc superpass.

This boils down to using MachineOperand::readsReg() more.
This fixes PR11829 where a use ended up after the first def when
lowering REG_SEQUENCE instructions involving IMPLICIT_DEFs.

A REG_SEQUENCE instruction is lowered into a sequence of partial defs:
%vreg7:ssub_0<def,undef> = COPY %vreg20:ssub_0
%vreg7:ssub_1<def> = COPY %vreg2
%vreg7:ssub_2<def> = COPY %vreg2
%vreg7:ssub_3<def> = COPY %vreg2
The first def needs an <undef> flag to indicate it is the beginning of
the live range, while the other defs are read-modify-write. Previously,
we depended on LiveIntervalAnalysis to notice and fix the missing
<def,undef>, but that solution was never robust, it was causing problems
with ProcessImplicitDefs and the lowering of chained REG_SEQUENCE
instructions.
This fixes PR11841.

violation -- MC cannot depend on CodeGen.
Specifically, the MCTargetDesc component of each target is actually
a subcomponent of the MC library. As such, it cannot depend on the
target-independent code generator, because MC itself cannot depend on
the target-independent code generator. This change moved a flag from the
ARM MCTargetDesc file ARMMCAsmInfo.cpp to the CodeGen layer in
ARMException.cpp, leaving behind an 'extern' to refer back to it. That
layering order isn't viable givin the constraints outlined above.
Commandline flags are designed to be static specifically to avoid these
types of bugs.
Fixing this is likely going to require some non-trivial refactoring.

overly conservative. It was concerned about cases where it would prohibit
folding simple [r, c] addressing modes. e.g.
ldr r0, [r2]
ldr r1, [r2, #4]
=>
ldr r0, [r2], #4
ldr r1, [r2]
Change the logic to look for such cases which allows it to form indexed memory
ops more aggressively.

Allow LDRD to be formed from pairs with different LDR encodings. This was the original intention of the pass. Somewhere along the way, the LDR opcodes were refined which broke the optimization. We really don't care what the original opcodes are as long as they both map to the same LDRD and the immediate still fits.

The register allocator also leaves some of them around (due to false
dep between copies from phi-elimination, etc.)
This required some changes in codegen passes. Post-ra scheduler and the
pseudo-instruction expansion passes have been moved after branch folding
and tail merging. They were before branch folding before because it did
not always update block livein's. That's fixed now. The pass change makes
independently since we want to properly schedule instructions after
branch folding / tail duplication.
