This is the same change on PPC64 as r255821 on AArch64. I have even borrowed his commit message. The access function has a short entry and a short exit, the initialization block is only run the first time. To improve the performance, we want to have a short frame at the entry and exit. We explicitly handle most of the CSRs via copies. Only the CSRs that are not handled via copies will be in CSR_SaveList. Frame lowering and prologue/epilogue insertion will generate a short frame in the entry and exit according to CSR_SaveList. The majority of the CSRs will be handled by register allcoator. Register allocator will try to spill and reload them in the initialization block. We add CSRsViaCopy, it will be explicitly handled during lowering. 1> we first set FunctionLoweringInfo->SplitCSR if conditions are met (the target supports it for the given machine function and the function has only return exits). We also call TLI->initializeSplitCSR to perform initialization. 2> we call TLI->insertCopiesSplitCSR to insert copies from CSRsViaCopy to virtual registers at beginning of the entry block and copies from virtual registers to CSRsViaCopy at beginning of the exit blocks. 3> we also need to make sure the explicit copies will not be eliminated.
