speaking these are not constant values. However, when a function always returns
one of its arguments, then from the point of view of each caller the return
value is constant (or at least a known value) and can be replaced.

Also learn IPConstProp how returning first class aggregates work, in addition
to old style multiple return instructions.
Modify the return-constants testscase to confirm this behaviour.

when changing the stride of a comparison so that it's slightly
more precise, by having it scan the instruction list to determine
if there is a use of the condition after the point where the
condition will be inserted.

I'm at it, rename it to FindInsertedValue.
The only functional change is that newly created instructions are no longer
added to instcombine's worklist, but that is not really necessary anyway (and
I'll commit some improvements next that will completely remove the need).

of apint codegen failure is the DAG combiner doing
the wrong thing because it was comparing MVT's using
< rather than comparing the number of bits. Removing
the < method makes this mistake impossible to commit.
Instead, add helper methods for comparing bits and use
them.

and better control the abstraction. Rename the type
to MVT. To update out-of-tree patches, the main
thing to do is to rename MVT::ValueType to MVT, and
rewrite expressions like MVT::getSizeInBits(VT) in
the form VT.getSizeInBits(). Use VT.getSimpleVT()
to extract a MVT::SimpleValueType for use in switch
statements (you will get an assert failure if VT is
an extended value type - these shouldn't exist after
type legalization).
This results in a small speedup of codegen and no
new testsuite failures (x86-64 linux).

work and how to replace them into individual values. Also, when trying to
replace an aggregrate that is used by load or store with a single (large)
integer, don't crash (but don't replace the aggregrate either).
Also adds a testcase for both structs and arrays.

are the same as in unpacked structs, only field
positions differ. This only matters for structs
containing x86 long double or an apint; it may
cause backwards compatibility problems if someone
has bitcode containing a packed struct with a
field of one of those types.
The issue is that only 10 bytes are needed to
hold an x86 long double: the store size is 10
bytes, but the ABI size is 12 or 16 bytes (linux/
darwin) which comes from rounding the store size
up by the alignment. Because it seemed silly not
to pack an x86 long double into 10 bytes in a
packed struct, this is what was done. I now
think this was a mistake. Reserving the ABI size
for an x86 long double field even in a packed
struct makes things more uniform: the ABI size is
now always used when reserving space for a type.
This means that developers are less likely to
make mistakes. It also makes life easier for the
CBE which otherwise could not represent all LLVM
packed structs (PR2402).
Front-end people might need to adjust the way
they create LLVM structs - see following change
to llvm-gcc.
