Using LIS can be quite expensive, so caching of calculated region
live-ins and pressure is implemented. It does two things:
1. Caches the info for the second stage when we schedule with
decreased target occupancy.
2. Tracks the basic block from top to bottom thus eliminating the
need to scan whole register file liveness at every region split
in the middle of the block.
The scheduling is now done in 3 stages instead of two, with the first
one being really a no-op and only used to collect scheduling regions
as sent by the scheduler driver.
There is no functional change to the current behavior, only compilation
speed is affected. In general computeBlockPressure() could be simplified
if we switch to backward RP tracker, because scheduler sends regions
within a block starting from the last upward. We could use a natural
order of upward tracker to seamlessly change between regions of the same
block, since live reg set of a previous tracked region would become a
live-out of the next region. That however requires fixing upward tracker
to properly account defs and uses of the same instruction as both are
contributing to the current pressure. When we converge on the produced
pressure we should be able to switch between them back and forth. In
addition, backward tracker is less expensive as it uses LIS in recede
less often than forward uses it in advance.
At the moment the worst known case compilation time has improved from 26
minutes to 8.5.

This factors register pressure estimation mechanism from the
GCNSchedStrategy into the forward tracker to unify interface
with other strategies and expose it to other interested phases.

This is incorrect to record region boundaries before scheduling,
it may change after scheduling. As a result second pass may see less
instructions to schedule than it should.

If during scheduling we have identified that we cannot keep optimistic
occupancy increase critical register pressure limit and try scheduling
of the whole function again. In this case blocks with smaller pressure
will have a chance for better scheduling.

This change introduces new method to estimate register pressure in
GCNScheduler. Standard RPTracker gives huge error due to the following
reasons:
1. It does not account for live-ins or live-outs if value is not used
in the region itself. That creates a huge error in a very common case
if there are a lot of live-thu registers.
2. It does not properly count subregs.
3. It assumes a register used as an input operand can be reused as an
output. This is not always possible by itself, this is not what RA
will finally do in many cases for various reasons not limited to RA's
inability to do so, and this is not so if the value is actually a
live-thu.
In addition we can now see clear separation between live-in pressure
which we cannot change with the scheduling and tentative pressure
which we can change.

This patch reverts region's scheduling to the original untouched state
in case if we have have decreased occupancy.
In addition it switches to use TargetRegisterInfo occupancy callback
for pressure limits instead of gradually increasing limits which were
just passed by. We are going to stay with the best schedule so we do
not need to tolerate worsened scheduling anymore.
