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.

When an outgoing call takes more than 2k of arguments on the stack, we
don't allocate that call frame in the prolog, but adjust the stack
pointer immediately before the call instead.
This causes problems with the emergency spill slot because PEI can't
track stack pointer adjustments on the second pass, and if the outgoing
arguments are too big, SP can't be used to reach the emergency spill
slot at all.
Work around these problems by ensuring there is a base or frame pointer
that can be used to access the emergency spill slot.

We on the linker to resolve calls to the appropriate BL/BLX instruction
to make interworking function correctly. It uses the symbol in the
relocation to do that, so we need to be careful about being too clever.
To enable this for ARM mode, split the BL/BLX fixup kind off from the
unconditional-branch fixups.

I'll let the buildbots determine the compile time improvements from this
change, but 464.h264ref has 5% faster codegen at -O2.
This patch does cause some assembly changes. Branch folding can make
different decisions about calls with dead return values.
CriticalAntiDepBreaker may choose different registers because its
liveness tracking is affected. MachineCopyPropagation may sometimes
leave a dead copy behind.

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.

As part of this I updated the llvm-mc disassembler C API to always call the
SymbolLookUp call back even if there is no getOpInfo call back. If there is a
getOpInfo call back that is tried first and then if that gets no information
then the SymbolLookUp is called. I also made the code more robust by
memset(3)'ing to zero the LLVMOpInfo1 struct before then setting
SymbolicOp.Value before for the call to getOpInfo. And also don't use any
values from the LLVMOpInfo1 struct if getOpInfo returns 0. And also don't
use any of the ReferenceType or ReferenceName values from SymbolLookUp if it
returns NULL. rdar://10873563 and rdar://10873683
For the X86 target also fixed bugs so the annotations get printed.
Also fixed a few places in the ARM target that was not producing symbolic
operands for some instructions. rdar://10878166

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.

The c'tor list is stored as a list of 'void ()*'s, so all of the functions are
bitcast to that. However, the dyn_cast doesn't automagically look through
bitcasts. Do that for it.

Moving toward a uniform style of pass definition to allow easier target configuration.
Globally declare Pass ID.
Globally declare pass initializer.
Use INITIALIZE_PASS consistently.
Add a call to the initializer from CodeGen.cpp.
Remove redundant "createPass" functions and "getPassName" methods.
While cleaning up declarations, cleaned up comments (sorry for large diff).
