Jakob Stoklund Olesen 374ed322f2 Add a new kind of MachineOperand: MO_RegisterMask.
Register masks will be used as a compact representation of large clobber
lists.  Currently, an x86 call instruction has some 40 operands
representing call-clobbered registers.  That's more than 1kB of useless
operands per call site.

A register mask operand references a bit mask of call-preserved
registers, everything else is clobbered.  The bit mask will typically
come from TargetRegisterInfo::getCallPreservedMask().

By abandoning ImplicitDefs for call-clobbered registers, it also becomes
possible to share call instruction descriptions between calling
conventions, and we can get rid of the WINCALL* instructions.

This patch introduces the new operand kind.  Future patches will add
RegMask support to target-independent passes before finally the fixed
clobber lists can be removed from call instruction descriptions.

Bill Wendling ee5eaebc58 Fix the code that was WRONG.
The registers are placed into the saved registers list in the reverse order,
which is why the original loop was written to loop backwards.

Jakob Stoklund Olesen d19d3cab09 Freeze reserved registers before starting register allocation.
The register allocators don't currently support adding reserved
registers while they are running.  Extend the MRI API to keep track of
the set of reserved registers when register allocation started.

Target hooks like hasFP() and needsStackRealignment() can look at this
set to avoid reserving more registers during register allocation.

Dan Gohman 518cda42b9 The powers that be have decided that LLVM IR should now support 16-bit
"half precision" floating-point with a first-class type.

This patch adds basic IR support (but not codegen support).

Jakob Stoklund Olesen 2a05f691ab Note ARM constant island alignment in the release notes.
The command line option should be removed, but not until the feature has
gotten a lot of testing. The ARMConstantIslandPass tends to have subtle
bugs that only show up after a while.

Dan Gohman 32772f7790 Fix a subtle semantic issue with poison values that came up in
recent discussions. Poison can't make every value that depends on
it act in maximally undefined ways, because the optimizer may still
hoist code following the usual rules for undef. Make Poison invoke
its full undefined behavior only when it reaches an instruction with
externally visible side effects.
