TableGen had been nicely generating code to print a number of instructions using
shorter aliases (and PowerPC has plenty of short mnemonics), but we were not
calling it. For some of the aliases we support in the parser, TableGen can't
infer the "inverse" alias relationship, so there is still more to do.
Thus, after some hours of updating test cases...
llvm-svn: 235616
Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.
A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)
import fileinput
import sys
import re
pat = re.compile(r"((?:=|:|^)\s*load (?:atomic )?(?:volatile )?(.*?))(| addrspace\(\d+\) *)\*($| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$)")
for line in sys.stdin:
sys.stdout.write(re.sub(pat, r"\1, \2\3*\4", line))

Summary:
Atomic loads and store of up to the native size (32 bits, or 64 for PPC64)
can be lowered to a simple load or store instruction (as the synchronization
is already handled by AtomicExpand, and the atomicity is guaranteed thanks to
the alignment requirements of atomic accesses). This is exactly what this patch
does. Previously, these were implemented by complex
load-linked/store-conditional loops.. an obvious performance problem.
For example, this patch turns
```
define void @store_i8_unordered(i8* %mem) {
store atomic i8 42, i8* %mem unordered, align 1
ret void
}
```
from
```
_store_i8_unordered: ; @store_i8_unordered
; BB#0:
rlwinm r2, r3, 3, 27, 28
li r4, 42
xori r5, r2, 24
rlwinm r2, r3, 0, 0, 29
li r3, 255
slw r4, r4, r5
slw r3, r3, r5
and r4, r4, r3
LBB4_1: ; =>This Inner Loop Header: Depth=1
lwarx r5, 0, r2
andc r5, r5, r3
or r5, r4, r5
stwcx. r5, 0, r2
bne cr0, LBB4_1
; BB#2:

```
into
```
_store_i8_unordered: ; @store_i8_unordered
; BB#0:
li r2, 42
stb r2, 0(r3)
blr
```
which looks like a pretty clear win to me.
Test Plan:
fixed the tests + new test for indexed accesses + make check-all

Summary:
This patch makes use of AtomicExpandPass in Power for inserting fences around
atomic as part of an effort to remove fence insertion from SelectionDAGBuilder.
As a big bonus, it lets us use sync 1 (lightweight sync, often used by the mnemonic
lwsync) instead of sync 0 (heavyweight sync) in many cases.
I also added a test, as there was no test for the barriers emitted by the Power
backend for atomic loads and stores.
