The initial values were arbitrary. I want them to be more
conservative. This represents the number of latency cycles hidden by
OOO execution. In practice, I think it should be within a small factor
of the complex floating point operation latency so the scheduler can
make some attempt to hide latency even for smallish blocks.
These are by no means the best values, just a starting point for
tuning heuristics. Some benchmarks such as TSVC run faster with this
lower value for SandyBridge. I haven't run anything on Haswell, but
it's shouldn't be 2x SB.

Buffered means a later divide may be executed out-of-order while a
prior divide is sitting (buffered) in a reservation station.
You can tell it's not pipelined, because operations that use it
reserve it for more than one cycle:
def : WriteRes<WriteIDiv, [HWPort0, HWDivider]> {
let Latency = 25;
let ResourceCycles = [1, 10];
}
We don't currently distinguish between an unpipeline operation and one
that is split into multiple micro-ops requiring the same unit. Except
that the later may have NumMicroOps > 1 if they also consume
issue/dispatch resources.
