Peter Collingbourne 6e5bbb57e4 ArgumentPromotion: Drop sret attribute on functions that are only called directly.
If the first argument to a function is a 'this' argument and the second
has the sret attribute, the ArgumentPromotion pass may promote the 'this'
argument to more than one argument, violating the IR constraint that 'sret'
may only be applied to the first or second argument.

Although this IR constraint is arguably unnecessary, it highlighted the fact
that ArgPromotion does not need to preserve this attribute. Dropping the
attribute reduces register pressure in the backend by avoiding the register
copy required by sret. Because sret implies noalias, we also replace the
former with the latter.

Low Level Virtual Machine (LLVM)
================================

This directory and its subdirectories contain source code for LLVM,
a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers,
optimizers, and runtime environments.

LLVM is open source software. You may freely distribute it under the terms of
the license agreement found in LICENSE.txt.

Please see the documentation provided in docs/ for further
assistance with LLVM, and in particular docs/GettingStarted.rst for getting
started with LLVM and docs/README.txt for an overview of LLVM's
documentation setup.

If you're writing a package for LLVM, see docs/Packaging.rst for our
suggestions.
