Kyle Butt b15c06677c CodeGen: Allow small copyable blocks to "break" the CFG.
When choosing the best successor for a block, ordinarily we would have preferred
a block that preserves the CFG unless there is a strong probability the other
direction. For small blocks that can be duplicated we now skip that requirement
as well, subject to some simple frequency calculations.

Kyle Butt efe56fed12 Revert "CodeGen: Allow small copyable blocks to "break" the CFG."
This reverts commit ada6595a526d71df04988eb0a4b4fe84df398ded.

This needs a simple probability check because there are some cases where it is
not profitable.

Tim Northover d32f8e60bf ARM: sink atomic release barrier as far as possible into cmpxchg.
DMB instructions can be expensive, so it's best to avoid them if possible. In
atomicrmw operations there will always be an attempted store so a release
barrier is always needed, but in the cmpxchg case we can delay the DMB until we
know we'll definitely try to perform a store (and so need release semantics).

In the strong cmpxchg case this isn't quite free: we must duplicate the LDREX
instructions to skip the barrier on subsequent iterations. The basic outline
becomes:

        ldrex rOld, [rAddr]
        cmp rOld, rDesired
        bne Ldone
        dmb
    Lloop:
        strex rRes, rNew, [rAddr]
        cbz rRes Ldone
        ldrex rOld, [rAddr]
        cmp rOld, rDesired
        beq Lloop
    Ldone:

So we'll skip this version for strong operations in "minsize" functions.

Ahmed Bougacha 81616a72ea [ARM] Emit clrex in the expanded cmpxchg fail block.
ARM counterpart to r248291:

In the comparison failure block of a cmpxchg expansion, the initial
ldrex/ldxr will not be followed by a matching strex/stxr.
On ARM/AArch64, this unnecessarily ties up the execution monitor,
which might have a negative performance impact on some uarchs.

Instead, release the monitor in the failure block.
The clrex instruction was designed for this: use it.

Also see ARMARM v8-A B2.10.2:
"Exclusive access instructions and Shareable memory locations".

Tim Northover 20b9f739eb Atomics: make use of the "cmpxchg weak" instruction.
This also simplifies the IR we create slightly: instead of working out
where success & failure should go manually, it turns out we can just
always jump to a success/failure block created for the purpose. Later
phases will sort out the mess without much difficulty.
