Move ownership of GCStrategy objects to LLVMContext
Note: This change ended up being slightly more controversial than expected. Chandler has tentatively okayed this for the moment, but I may be revisiting this in the near future after we settle some high level questions.
Rather than have the GCStrategy object owned by the GCModuleInfo - which is an immutable analysis pass used mainly by gc.root - have it be owned by the LLVMContext. This simplifies the ownership logic (i.e. can you have two instances of the same strategy at once?), but more importantly, allows us to access the GCStrategy in the middle end optimizer. To this end, I add an accessor through Function which becomes the canonical way to get at a GCStrategy instance.
In the near future, this will allows me to move some of the checks from http://reviews.llvm.org/D6808 into the Verifier itself, and to introduce optimization legality predicates for some of the recent additions to InstCombine. (These will follow as separate changes.)

Remove gc.root's findCustomSafePoints mechanism
Searching all of the existing gc.root implementations I'm aware of (all three of them), there was exactly one use of this mechanism, and that was to implement a performance improvement that should have been applied to the default lowering.
Having this function is requiring a dependency on a CodeGen class (MachineFunction), in a class which is otherwise completely independent of CodeGen. I could solve this differently, but given that I see absolutely no value in preserving this mechanism, I going to just get rid of it.
Note: Tis is the first time I'm intentionally breaking previously supported gc.root functionality. Given 3.6 has branched, I believe this is a good time to do this.

[X86][DAG] Disable target specific combine on INSERTPS dag nodes at -O0.
This patch disables target specific combine on X86ISD::INSERTPS dag nodes
if optlevel is CodeGenOpt::None.
The backend currently implements a target specific combine rule that converts
a vector load used by an INSERTPS dag node into a scalar load plus a
scalar_to_vector. This allows ISel to select a single INSERTPSrm instead of
two instructions (i.e. a vector load plus INSERTPSrr).
However, the existing target combine rule on INSERTPS nodes only works under
the assumption that ISel will always be able to match an INSERTPSrm. This is
not true in general at -O0, since the backend only allows folding a load into
the memory operand of an instruction if the optimization level is not
CodeGenOpt::None.
In the example below:
//
__m128 test(__m128 a, __m128 *b) {
__m128 c = _mm_insert_ps(a, *b, 1 << 6);
return c;
}
//
Before this patch, at -O0, the backend would have canonicalized the load to 'b'
into a scalar load plus scalar_to_vector. Later on, ISel would have selected an
INSERTPSrr leaving the insertps mask in an inconsistent state:

[X86] Refactored stack memory folding tests to explicitly force register spilling
The current 'big vectors' stack folded reload testing pattern is very bulky and makes it difficult to test all instructions as big vectors will tend to use only the ymm instruction implementations.
This patch changes the tests to use a nop call that lists explicit xmm registers as sideeffects, with this we can force a partial register spill of the relevant registers and then check that the reload is correctly folded. The asm generated only adds the forced spill, a nop instruction and a couple of extra labels (a fraction of the current approach).
More exhaustive tests will follow shortly, I've added some extra tests (the xmm versions of some of the existing folding tests) as a starting point.

[PowerPC] Loosen ELFv1 PPC64 func descriptor loads for indirect calls
Function pointers under PPC64 ELFv1 (which is used on PPC64/Linux on the
POWER7, A2 and earlier cores) are really pointers to a function descriptor, a
structure with three pointers: the actual pointer to the code to which to jump,
the pointer to the TOC needed by the callee, and an environment pointer. We
used to chain these loads, and make them opaque to the rest of the optimizer,
so that they'd always occur directly before the call. This is not necessary,
and in fact, highly suboptimal on embedded cores. Once the function pointer is
known, the loads can be performed ahead of time; in fact, they can be hoisted
out of loops.
Now these function descriptors are almost always generated by the linker, and
thus the contents of the descriptors are invariant. As a result, by default,
we'll mark the associated loads as invariant (allowing them to be hoisted out
of loops). I've added a target feature to turn this off, however, just in case
someone needs that option (constructing an on-stack descriptor, casting it to a
function pointer, and then calling it cannot be well-defined C/C++ code, but I
can imagine some JIT-compilation system doing so).
Consider this simple test:
$ cat call.c
typedef void (*fp)();
void bar(fp x) {
for (int i = 0; i < 1600000000; ++i)
x();
}
On the PPC A2 (the BG/Q supercomputer), marking the function-descriptor loads
as invariant brings the execution time down to ~8 seconds from ~32 seconds with
the loads in the loop.
The difference on the POWER7 is smaller. Compiling with:
clang -O3 -mcpu=native call.c main.c -mno-invariant-function-descriptors : ~4 seconds
(looks like we'd benefit from additional loop unrolling here, as a first
guess, because this is faster with the extra loads)
The -mno-invariant-function-descriptors will be added to Clang shortly.

1. We need to manually remove the old and create the new 'deaf defs'
associated with physical register definitions when we move the definition of
the physical register from the copy point to the point of the original vreg def.
This problem was picked up by the machinstr verifier, and could trigger a
verification failure on test/CodeGen/X86/2009-02-12-DebugInfoVLA.ll, so I've
turned on the verifier in the tests.
2. When moving the def point of the phys reg up, we need to make sure that it
is neither defined nor read in between the two instructions. We don't, however,
extend the live ranges of phys reg defs to cover uses, so just checking for
live-range overlap between the pair interval and the phys reg aliases won't
pick up reads. As a result, we manually iterate over the range and check for
reads.
A test soon to be committed to the PowerPC backend will test this change.

MachineVerifier: Allow undef reads if a matching superreg is defined.
Summary:
Some pseudo instruction expansions break down a wide register use into
multiple uses of smaller sub registers. If the super register was
partially undefined the broken down sub registers may be completely
undefined now leading to MachineVerifier complaints. Unfortunately
liveness information to add the required dead flags is not easily
(cheaply) available when expanding pseudo instructions.
This commit changes the verifier to be quiet if there is an additional
implicit use of a super register. Pseudo instruction expanders can use
this to mark cases where partially defined values get potentially broken
into completely undefined ones.
IR: Drop metadata references more aggressively during teardown
Sometimes teardown happens before the debug info graph is complete
(e.g., when clang throws an error). In that case, `MDNode`s will still
have RAUW, so deleting constants that the `MDNode`s point at will be
relatively expensive -- it'll cause re-uniquing all up the chain (what
I've been referring to as "teardown madness").
So, drop references *before* deleting constants. We need to drop a few
more references now: the metadata side of the metadata/value bridges
needs to be dropped off the cliff along with the rest of it (previously,
the bridges were cleaned before we did anything with the `MDNode`s).
There's no real functionality change here -- state before and after
`LLVMContextImpl::~LLVMContextImpl()` is unchanged -- so no testcase.
