There is not an official documented ABI for frame pointers in Thumb2,
but we should try to emit something which is useful.
We use r7 as the frame pointer for Thumb code, which currently means
that if a function needs to save a high register (r8-r11), it will get
pushed to the stack between the frame pointer (r7) and link register
(r14). This means that while a stack unwinder can follow the chain of
frame pointers up the stack, it cannot know the offset to lr, so does
not know which functions correspond to the stack frames.
To fix this, we need to push the callee-saved registers in two batches,
with the first push saving the low registers, fp and lr, and the second
push saving the high registers. This is already implemented, but
previously only used for iOS. This patch turns it on for all Thumb2
targets when frame pointers are required by the ABI, and the frame
pointer is r7 (Windows uses r11, so this isn't a problem there). If
frame pointer elimination is enabled we still emit a single push/pop
even if we need a frame pointer for other reasons, to avoid increasing
code size.
We must also ensure that lr is pushed to the stack when using a frame
pointer, so that we end up with a complete frame record. Situations that
could cause this were rare, because we already push lr in most
situations so that we can return using the pop instruction.

I'm really not sure why we were in the first place, it's the linker's job to
convert between BL/BLX as necessary. Even worse, using BLX left Thumb calls
that could be locally resolved completely unencodable since all offsets to BLX
are multiples of 4.

(This is the second attempt to submit this patch. The first caused two assertion
failures and was reverted. See https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=25687)
The patch in http://reviews.llvm.org/D13745 is broken into four parts:
1. New interfaces without functional changes (http://reviews.llvm.org/D13908).
2. Use new interfaces in SelectionDAG, while in other passes treat probabilities
as weights (http://reviews.llvm.org/D14361).
3. Use new interfaces in all other passes.
4. Remove old interfaces.
This patch is 3+4 above. In this patch, MBB won't provide weight-based
interfaces any more, which are totally replaced by probability-based ones.
The interface addSuccessor() is redesigned so that the default probability is
unknown. We allow unknown probabilities but don't allow using it together
with known probabilities in successor list. That is to say, we either have a
list of successors with all known probabilities, or all unknown
probabilities. In the latter case, we assume each successor has 1/N
probability where N is the number of successors. An assertion checks if the
user is attempting to add a successor with the disallowed mixed use as stated
above. This can help us catch many misuses.
All uses of weight-based interfaces are now updated to use probability-based
ones.

1. New interfaces without functional changes.
2. Use new interfaces in SelectionDAG, while in other passes treat probabilities

3. Use new interfaces in all other passes.

This the second patch above. In this patch SelectionDAG starts to use
probability-based interfaces in MBB to add successors but other MC passes are
still using weight-based interfaces. Therefore, we need to maintain correct
weight list in MBB even when probability-based interfaces are used. This is
done by updating weight list in probability-based interfaces by treating the
numerator of probabilities as weights. This change affects many test cases
that check successor weight values. I will update those test cases once this
patch looks good to you.

In if-conversion, there is a utility function MergeBlocks() that is used to merge blocks. However, when new edges are built in this function the edge weight is either not provided or not updated properly, leading to a modified CFG with incorrect edge weights. This patch corrects this issue.

If we couldn't analyze its terminator (i.e., it's an indirectbr, or some
other weirdness), we can't safely re-if-convert a predicated block,
because we can't tell whether the predicated terminator can
fallthrough (it does).
Currently, we would completely ignore the fallthrough successor. In
the added testcase, this means we used to generate:
...
@ %entry:
cmp r5, #21
ittt ne
@ %cc1f:
cmpne r7, #42
@ %cc2t:
strne.w r5, [r8]
movne pc, r10
@ %cc1t:
...
Whereas the successor of %cc1f was originally %bb1.
With the fix, we get the correct:
...
@ %entry:
cmp r5, #21
itt eq
@ %cc1t:
streq.w r5, [r11]
moveq pc, r0
@ %cc1f:
cmp r7, #42
itt ne
@ %cc2t:
strne.w r5, [r8]
movne pc, r10
@ %bb1:
