James Y Knight ee058202fa Sparc: Add the "alternate address space" load/store instructions.
- Adds support for the asm syntax, which has an immediate integer
  "ASI" (address space identifier) appearing after an address, before
  a comma.

- Adds the various-width load, store, and swap in alternate address
  space instructions. (ldsba, ldsha, lduba, lduha, lda, stba, stha,
  sta, swapa)

This does not attempt to hook these instructions up to pointer address
spaces in LLVM, although that would probably be a reasonable thing to
do in the future.

To-do
-----

* Keep the address of the constant pool in a register instead of forming its
  address all of the time.
* We can fold small constant offsets into the %hi/%lo references to constant
  pool addresses as well.
* When in V9 mode, register allocate %icc[0-3].
* Add support for isel'ing UMUL_LOHI instead of marking it as Expand.
* Emit the 'Branch on Integer Register with Prediction' instructions.  It's
  not clear how to write a pattern for this though:

float %t1(int %a, int* %p) {
        %C = seteq int %a, 0
        br bool %C, label %T, label %F
T:
        store int 123, int* %p
        br label %F
F:
        ret float undef
}

codegens to this:

t1:
        save -96, %o6, %o6
1)      subcc %i0, 0, %l0
1)      bne .LBBt1_2    ! F
        nop
.LBBt1_1:       ! T
        or %g0, 123, %l0
        st %l0, [%i1]
.LBBt1_2:       ! F
        restore %g0, %g0, %g0
        retl
        nop

1) should be replaced with a brz in V9 mode.

* Same as above, but emit conditional move on register zero (p192) in V9
  mode.  Testcase:

int %t1(int %a, int %b) {
        %C = seteq int %a, 0
        %D = select bool %C, int %a, int %b
        ret int %D
}

* Emit MULX/[SU]DIVX instructions in V9 mode instead of fiddling
  with the Y register, if they are faster.

* Codegen bswap(load)/store(bswap) -> load/store ASI

* Implement frame pointer elimination, e.g. eliminate save/restore for
  leaf fns.
* Fill delay slots

* Use %g0 directly to materialize 0. No instruction is required.
