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 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.

PR25157 identifies a bug where a load plus a vector shuffle is
incorrectly converted into an LXVDSX instruction. That optimization
is only valid if the load is of a doubleword, and in the noted case,
it was not. This corrects that problem.
Joint patch with Eric Schweitz, who provided the bugpoint-reduced test
case.
