This is causing compilation timeouts on code with long sequences of
local values and calls (i.e. foo(1); foo(2); foo(3); ...). It turns out
that code coverage instrumentation is a great way to create sequences
like this, which how our users ran into the issue in practice.
Intel has a tool that detects these kinds of non-linear compile time
issues, and Andy Kaylor reported it as PR37010.
The current sinking code scans the whole basic block once per local
value sink, which happens before emitting each call. In theory, local
values should only be introduced to be used by instructions between the
current flush point and the last flush point, so we should only need to
scan those instructions.

Summary:
Local values are constants, global addresses, and stack addresses that
can't be folded into the instruction that uses them. For example, when
storing the address of a global variable into memory, we need to
materialize that address into a register.
FastISel doesn't want to materialize any given local value more than
once, so it generates all local value materialization code at
EmitStartPt, which always dominates the current insertion point. This
allows it to maintain a map of local value registers, and it knows that
the local value area will always dominate the current insertion point.
The downside is that local value instructions are always emitted without
a source location. This is done to prevent jumpy line tables, but it
means that the local value area will be considered part of the previous
statement. Consider this C code:
call1(); // line 1
++global; // line 2
++global; // line 3
call2(&global, &local); // line 4
Today we end up with assembly and line tables like this:
.loc 1 1
callq call1
leaq global(%rip), %rdi
leaq local(%rsp), %rsi
.loc 1 2
addq $1, global(%rip)
.loc 1 3
addq $1, global(%rip)
.loc 1 4
callq call2
The LEA instructions in the local value area have no source location and
are treated as being on line 1. Stepping through the code in a debugger
and correlating it with the assembly won't make much sense, because
these materializations are only required for line 4.
This is actually problematic for the VS debugger "set next statement"
feature, which effectively assumes that there are no registers live
across statement boundaries. By sinking the local value code into the
statement and fixing up the source location, we can make that feature
work. This was filed as https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35975 and
https://crbug.com/793819.
This change is obviously not enough to make this feature work reliably
in all cases, but I felt that it was worth doing anyway because it
usually generates smaller, more comprehensible -O0 code. I measured a
0.12% regression in code generation time with LLC on the sqlite3
amalgamation, so I think this is worth doing.
There are some special cases worth calling out in the commit message:
1. local values materialized for phis
2. local values used by no-op casts
3. dead local value code
Local values can be materialized for phis, and this does not show up as
a vreg use in MachineRegisterInfo. In this case, if there are no other
uses, this patch sinks the value to the first terminator, EH label, or
the end of the BB if nothing else exists.
Local values may also be used by no-op casts, which adds the register to
the RegFixups table. Without reversing the RegFixups map direction, we
don't have enough information to sink these instructions.
Lastly, if the local value register has no other uses, we can delete it.
This comes up when fastisel tries two instruction selection approaches
and the first materializes the value but fails and the second succeeds
without using the local value.

Summary:
Implements fastLowerArguments() to avoid the need to fall back on
SelectionDAG for 0-4 argument functions that don't do tricky things like
passing double in a pair of i32's.
This allows us to move all except one test to -fast-isel-abort=3. The
remaining one has function prototypes of the form 'i32 (i32, double, double)'
which requires floats to be passed in GPR's.
The previous commit had an uninitialized variable that caused the incoming
argument region to have undefined size. This has been fixed.

Summary:
This hidden option would disable code generation through FastISel by
default. It was removed from the available options and from the
Fast-ISel tests that required it in order to run the tests.

Summary:
Previously, we would sign-extend non-boolean negative constants and
zero-extend otherwise. This was problematic for PHI instructions with
negative values that had a type with bitwidth less than that of the
register used for materialization.
More specifically, ComputePHILiveOutRegInfo() assumes the constants
present in a PHI node are zero extended in their container and
afterwards deduces the known bits.
For example, previously we would materialize an i16 -4 with the
following instruction:
addiu $r, $zero, -4
The register would end-up with the 32-bit 2's complement representation
of -4. However, ComputePHILiveOutRegInfo() would generate a constant
with the upper 16-bits set to zero. The SelectionDAG builder would use
that information to generate an AssertZero node that would remove any
subsequent trunc & zero_extend nodes.
In theory, we should modify ComputePHILiveOutRegInfo() to consult
target-specific hooks about the way they prefer to materialize the
given constants. However, git-blame reports that this specific code
has not been touched since 2011 and it seems to be working well for every
target so far.

Summary:
Currently fast-isel-abort will only abort for regular instructions,
and just warn for function calls, terminators, function arguments.
There is already fast-isel-abort-args but nothing for calls and
terminators.
This change turns the fast-isel-abort options into an integer option,
so that multiple levels of strictness can be defined.
This will help no being surprised when the "abort" option indeed does
not abort, and enables the possibility to write test that verifies
that no intrinsics are forgotten by fast-isel.

Summary:
Expand list of supported targets for Mips to include mips32 r1.
Previously it only include r2. More patches are coming where there is
a difference but in the current patches as pushed upstream, r1 and r2
are equivalent.
Test Plan:
simplestorefp1.ll
add new build bots at mips to test this flavor at both -O0 and -O2
