Summary:
Instead the system is required to provide some means of handling unaligned
load/store without special instructions. Options include full hardware
support, full trap-and-emulate, and hybrids such as hardware support within
a cache line and trap-and-emulate for multi-line accesses.
MipsSETargetLowering::allowsUnalignedMemoryAccesses() has been configured to
assume that unaligned accesses are 'fast' on the basis that I expect few
hardware implementations will opt for pure-software handling of unaligned
accesses. The ones that do handle it purely in software can override this.
mips64-load-store-left-right.ll has been merged into load-store-left-right.ll
The stricter testing revealed a Bits!=Bytes bug in passByValArg(). This has
been fixed and the variables renamed to clarify the units they hold.
