Internally both these methods just return the result of getValue on either a StringInit or a CodeInit object. In both cases this returns a StringRef pointing to a string allocated in the BumpPtrAllocator so its not going anywhere. So we can just pass that StringRef along.
This is a fairly naive patch that targets just the build failures caused by this change. There's additional work that can be done to avoid creating std::string at call sites that still think getValueAsString returns a std::string. I'll try to clean those up in future patches.

Inside an alias group, when ordering instruction aliases, we rely
on the priority field to sort them.
When the priority is not set or more generally when there is a tie between
two aliases, we used to rely on the lexicographic order. However, this
order can change for the anonymous records when more instruction, intrinsic,
etc. are inserted.
For instance, given two anonymous records r1 and r2 with respective name
A_999 and A_1000, their lexicography order will be r2 then r1. Now, if
an instruction is added before them, their name will become respectively
A_1000 and A_1001, thus the lexicography order will be r1 then r2, i.e.,
it changed.
If that happens in an alias group, the assembly output would prefer a
different alias for no apparent good reasons.
A way to fix that is to use proper priority for all aliases, but we
can also make the tie breaker comparison smarter and use a deterministic
ordering. This is what this patch does.

This patch checks the number of operands in the resulting
instruction instead of just the alias, then skips over
tied operands when generating the printing method.
This allows us to generate the preferred assembly syntax
for the AArch64 'ins' instruction, which should always be
displayed as 'mov' according to the ARMARM.
Several unit tests have changed as a result, but only to
reflect the preferred disassembly.
Some other InstAlias patterns (movk/bic/orr) needed a
slight adjustment to stop them becoming the default
and breaking other unit tests.

consider the Predicates attached to InstAlias when generating printAliasInstr.
This forces users of printAliasInstr to check those predicates beforehand.
This commit adds them in the condition set of the IAPrinter object.

Adds the corresponding CodeGenInstruction number to each AsmWriterInst. Then write all the operand uniqueing loops using the AsmWriterInst array and indices. Then use the CodeGenInstruction index to fill out the OpCodeInfo array.

AsmWriterEmitter will generate a getRegisterName function with an alternate
register name index as its second argument if the target makes use of them. The
enum of these values is generated in RegisterInfoEmitter. The getRegisterName
generator would assume the namespace could always be found by reading index 1
of the list of AltNameIndices, but this will fail if this list is sorted such
that the NoRegAltName is at index 1. Because this list is sorted by record name
(in CodeGenTarget::ReadRegAltNameIndices), you only run in to problems if your
MyTargetRegisterInfo.td defines a single RegAltNameIndex that sorts lexically
before NoRegAltName.
For example, if a target has something like
def AnAltNameIndex : RegAltNameIndex
and defines RegAltNameIndices for some registers then, prior to this change,
AsmWriterEmitter would generate references to
::AnAltNameIndex and ::NoRegAltName

The Statistical Profiling Extension is an optional extension to
ARMv8.2-A. Since it is an optional extension, I have added the
FeatureSPE subtarget feature to control it. The assembler-visible parts
of this extension are the new "psb csync" instruction, which is
equivalent to "hint #17", and a number of system registers.

After r244870 flush() will only compare two null pointers and return,
doing nothing but wasting run time. The call is not required any more
as the stream and its SmallString are always in sync.

per-function subtarget.
Currently, code-gen passes the default or generic subtarget to the constructors
of MCInstPrinter subclasses (see LLVMTargetMachine::addPassesToEmitFile), which
enables some targets (AArch64, ARM, and X86) to change their instprinter's
behavior based on the subtarget feature bits. Since the backend can now use
different subtargets for each function, instprinter has to be changed to use the
per-function subtarget rather than the default subtarget.
This patch takes the first step towards enabling instprinter to change its
behavior based on the per-function subtarget. It adds a bit "PassSubtarget" to
AsmWriter which tells table-gen to pass a reference to MCSubtargetInfo to the
various print methods table-gen auto-generates.
I will follow up with changes to instprinters of AArch64, ARM, and X86.

This patch was generated by a clang tidy checker that is being open sourced.
The documentation of that checker is the following:
/// The emptiness of a container should be checked using the empty method
/// instead of the size method. It is not guaranteed that size is a
/// constant-time function, and it is generally more efficient and also shows
/// clearer intent to use empty. Furthermore some containers may implement the
/// empty method but not implement the size method. Using empty whenever
/// possible makes it easier to switch to another container in the future.

An instruction alias defined with InstAlias and an optional operand in the
middle of the AsmString field, "..${a} <operands>", would get the final
"}" printed in the instruction disassembly. This wouldn't happen if the optional
operand appeared as the last item in the AsmString which is how the current
backends avoided the problem.
There don't appear to be any tests for this part of Tablegen but it passes the
pre-commit tests. Manually tested the change by enabling the generic alias
printer in the ARM backend and checking the output.
