This saves a cast, and zext is more expensive on platforms with subreg support
than trunc is. This occurs in the BSD implementation of memchr(3), see PR12750.
On the synthetic benchmark from that bug stupid_memchr and bsd_memchr have the
same performance now when not inlining either function.
stupid_memchr: 323.0us
bsd_memchr: 321.0us
memchr: 479.0us
where memchr is the llvm-gcc compiled bsd_memchr from osx lion's libc. When
inlining is enabled bsd_memchr still regresses down to llvm-gcc memchr time,
I haven't fully understood the issue yet, something is grossly mangling the
loop after inlining.

Over the entire test-suite, this has an insignificantly negative average
performance impact, but reduces some of the worst slowdowns from the
anti-dep. change (r158294).

The PPC64 backend had patterns for i32 <-> i64 extensions and truncations that
would leave self-moves in the final assembly. Replacing those patterns with ones
based on the SUBREG builtins yields better-looking code.
Thanks to Jakob and Owen for their suggestions in this matter.

Tail merging had been disabled on PPC because it would disturb bundling decisions
made during pre-RA scheduling on the 970 cores. Now, however, all bundling decisions
are made during post-RA scheduling, and tail merging is generally beneficial (the
average test-suite speedup is insignificantly positive).

This is improved by using full (instead of just critical) anti-dependency breaking,
but doing so still causes miscompiles and so cannot yet be enabled by default.

The fast register allocator is not supposed to work in the optimizing
pipeline. It doesn't make sense to compute live intervals, run full copy
coalescing, and then run RAFast.
Fast register allocation in the optimizing pipeline is better done by
RABasic.

-%a + 42

This fixes the infinite loop in PR12338. The generated code is still not perfect, though.

Thanks to Jakob's help, this now causes no new test suite failures!
Over the entire test suite, this gives an average 1% speedup. The largest speedups are:
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/pi - 108%
SingleSource/Benchmarks/CoyoteBench/lpbench - 54%
MultiSource/Benchmarks/Prolangs-C/unix-smail/unix-smail - 50%
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout/ary3 - 32%

The largest slowdowns are:

MultiSource/Benchmarks/BitBench/uuencode/uuencode - -22%
MultiSource/Applications/d/make_dparser - -14%
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout-C++/ary - -13%
In light of these slowdowns, additional profiling work is obviously needed!

The pass itself works well, but the something in the Machine* infrastructure
does not understand terminators which define registers. Without the ability
to use the block-placement pass, etc. this causes performance regressions (and
so is turned off by default). Turning off the analysis turns off the problems
with the Machine* infrastructure.

The code which tests for an induction operation cannot assume that any
ADDI instruction will have a register operand because the operand could
also be a frame index; for example:
%vreg16<def> = ADDI8 <fi#0>, 0; G8RC:%vreg16

This pass is derived from the Hexagon HardwareLoops pass. The only significant enhancement over the Hexagon
pass is that PPCCTRLoops will also attempt to delete the replaced add and compare operations if they are
no longer otherwise used. Also, invalid preheader DebugLoc is not used.

can move instructions within the instruction list. If the instruction just
happens to be the one the basic block iterator is pointing to, and it is
moved to a different basic block, then we get into an infinite loop due to
the iterator running off the end of the basic block (for some reason this
doesn't fire any assertions). Original commit message:
Grab-bag of reassociate tweaks. Unify handling of dead instructions and
instructions to reoptimize. Exploit this to more systematically eliminate
dead instructions (this isn't very useful in practice but is convenient for
analysing some testcase I am working on). No need for WeakVH any more: use
an AssertingVH instead.

This patch will generate the following for integer ABS:
movl %edi, %eax
negl %eax
cmovll %edi, %eax
INSTEAD OF
movl %edi, %ecx
sarl $31, %ecx
leal (%rdi,%rcx), %eax
xorl %ecx, %eax
There exists a target-independent DAG combine for integer ABS, which converts
integer ABS to sar+add+xor. For X86, we match this pattern back to neg+cmov.
This is implemented in PerformXorCombine.

It seems that this no longer causes test suite failures on PPC64 (after r157159),
and often gives a performance benefit, so it can be enabled by default.

This removes a bit of context from the verifier erros, but reduces code
duplication in a fairly critical part of LLVM and makes dominates easier to test.

This patch will optimize the following:
sub r1, r3
cmp r3, r1 or cmp r1, r3
bge L1
TO
sub r1, r3
bge L1 or ble L1
If the branch instruction can use flag from "sub", then we can eliminate
the "cmp" instruction.
