An instruction like this will need to allocate some stack space for the
last parameter:
%x = call addrspace(1) i16 @bar(i64 undef, i64 undef, i16 undef, i16 0)
This worked fine when passing an actual value (in this case 0). However,
when passing undef, no value was pushed to the stack and therefore no
push instructions were created. This caused an unbalanced stack leading
to interesting results.
This commit fixes that by replacing the push logic with a regular stack
adjustment and stack-relative load/stores. This is less efficient but at
least it correctly compiles the code.
I can think of a few improvements in the future:
* The stack should have been adjusted in the function prologue when
there are no allocas in the function.
* Many (if not most) stack adjustments can be replaced by
pushing/popping the values directly. Exactly like the previous code
attempted but didn't do correctly.
* Small stack adjustments can be done more efficiently with a few
push/pop instructions (pushing/popping bogus values), both for code
size and for speed.
All in all, as long as there are no allocas in the function I think that
it is almost always more efficient to emit regular push/pop
instructions. This is however left for future optimizations.

For IR generated by a compiler, this is really simple: you just take the
datalayout from the beginning of the file, and apply it to all the IR
later in the file. For optimization testcases that don't care about the
datalayout, this is also really simple: we just use the default
datalayout.
The complexity here comes from the fact that some LLVM tools allow
overriding the datalayout: some tools have an explicit flag for this,
some tools will infer a datalayout based on the code generation target.
Supporting this properly required plumbing through a bunch of new
machinery: we want to allow overriding the datalayout after the
datalayout is parsed from the file, but before we use any information
from it. Therefore, IR/bitcode parsing now has a callback to allow tools
to compute the datalayout at the appropriate time.
Not sure if I covered all the LLVM tools that want to use the callback.
(clang? lli? Misc IR manipulation tools like llvm-link?). But this is at
least enough for all the LLVM regression tests, and IR without a
datalayout is not something frontends should generate.
This change had some sort of weird effects for certain CodeGen
regression tests: if the datalayout is overridden with a datalayout with
a different program or stack address space, we now parse IR based on the
overridden datalayout, instead of the one written in the file (or the
default one, if none is specified). This broke a few AVR tests, and one
AMDGPU test.
Outside the CodeGen tests I mentioned, the test changes are all just
fixing CHECK lines and moving around datalayout lines in weird places.

Commit r343851 changed the format of the generated instructions.
An unnecessary load has been removed. Previously, a value would be moved
from r24 into a temporary register just to be copied into r30 before the
indirect call. Now, codegen immediately loads r24 into r30, saving a
MOVW instruction.

A bunch of tests failed because memory operations have been reordered.
I am unsure which commit changed this behaviour as the AVR build was
failing at that point with an unrelated error.
This commit just reoders some of the CHECK lines in some tests to suit
current llc output.

Summary:
A lot of the pseudo instructions are required because LLVM assumes that
all integers of the same size as the pointer size are legal. This means
that it will not currently expand 16-bit instructions to their 8-bit
variants because it thinks 16-bit types are legal for the operations.
This also adds all of the CodeGen tests that required the pass to run.
