If the arch is P8, we will select XFLOAD to load the floating point, and then, expand it to vsx and non-vsx X-form instruction post RA. This patch is trying to convert the X-form to D-form if it meets the requirement that one operand of the x-form inst is the special Zero register, and another operand fed by add inst. i.e.
y = add imm, reg
LFDX. 0, y
-->
LFD imm(reg)

The match pattern in the definition of LXSDX is xoaddr, so the Pseudo
instruction XFLOADf64 never gets selected. XFLOADf64 expands to LXSDX/LFDX post
RA based on the register pressure. To avoid ambiguity, we need to remove the
select pattern for LXSDX, same as what was done for LXSD. STXSDX also have
the same issue.

The VSX versions have the advantage of a full 64-register target whereas the FP
ones have the advantage of lower latency and higher throughput. So what we’re
after is using the faster instructions in low register pressure situations and
using the larger register file in high register pressure situations.
The heuristic chooses between the following 7 pairs of instructions.
PPC::LXSSPX vs PPC::LFSX
PPC::LXSDX vs PPC::LFDX
PPC::STXSSPX vs PPC::STFSX
PPC::STXSDX vs PPC::STFDX
PPC::LXSIWAX vs PPC::LFIWAX
PPC::LXSIWZX vs PPC::LFIWZX
PPC::STXSIWX vs PPC::STFIWX

This patch corresponds to review:
The newly added VSX D-Form (register + offset) memory ops target the upper half
of the VSX register set. The existing ones target the lower half. In order to
unify these and have the ability to target all the VSX registers using D-Form
operations, this patch defines Pseudo-ops for the loads/stores which are
expanded post-RA. The expansion then choses the correct opcode based on the
register that was allocated for the operation.

Currently we have a number of tests that fail with -verify-machineinstrs.
To detect this cases earlier we add the option to the testcases with the
exception of tests that will currently fail with this option. PR 27456 keeps
track of this failures.
No code review, as discussed with Hal Finkel.

It improves the code generated for converting a scalar to a vector value. With
direct moves from GPRs to VSRs, we no longer require expensive stack operations
for this. Subsequent patches will handle the reverse case and more general
operations between vectors and their scalar elements.

It adds a new register class to the PPC back end to contain single precision
values in VSX registers. Additionally, it adds scalar loads and stores for
VSX registers.
