canonical example I used when developing it, and is one of the primary
motivating real-world use cases for __builtin_expect (when burried under
a macro).
I'm working on more test cases here, but I'm trying to make sure both
that the pass is doing the right thing with the test cases and that they
aren't too brittle to changes elsewhere in the code generation pipeline.
Feedback and/or suggestions on how to test this are very welcome.
Especially feedback on whether testing the block comments is a good
strategy; I couldn't find any good examples to steal from but all the
other ideas I had were a lot uglier or more fragile.

When checking the availability of instructions using the TLI, a 'promoted'
instruction IS available. It means that the value is bitcasted to another type
for which there is an operation. The correct check for the availablity of an
instruction is to check if it should be expanded.

On spec/gcc, this caused a codesize improvement of ~1.9% for ARM mode and ~4.9% for Thumb(2) mode. This is
codesize including literal pools.
The pools themselves doubled in size for ARM mode and quintupled for Thumb mode, leaving suggestion that there
is still perhaps redundancy in LLVM's use of constant pools that could be decreased by sharing entries.
Fixes PR11087.

Add a Value named "NAME" to each Record. This will be set to the def or defm
name when instantiating multiclasses. This will replace the #NAME# processing
hack once paste functionality is in place.

and switches, with arbitrary numbers of successors. Still optimized for
the common case of 2 successors for a conditional branch.
Add a test case for switch metadata showing up in the BlockFrequencyInfo pass.

encoding of probabilities. In the absense of metadata, it continues to
fall back on static heuristics.
This allows __builtin_expect, after lowering through llvm.expect
a branch instruction's metadata, to actually enter the branch
probability model. This is one component of resolving PR2577.

layer already had support for printing the results of this analysis, but
the wiring was missing.
Now that printing the analysis works, actually bring some of this
analysis, and the BranchProbabilityInfo analysis that it wraps, under
test! I'm planning on fixing some bugs and doing other work here, so
having a nice place to add regression tests and a way to observe the
results is really useful.

svn r139159 caused SelectionDAG::getConstant() to promote BUILD_VECTOR operands
with illegal types, even before type legalization. For this testcase, that led
to one BUILD_VECTOR with i16 operands and another with promoted i32 operands,
which triggered the assertion.
