Summary:
This includes a hazard recognizer implementation to replace some of
the hazard handling we had during frame index elimination.

Summary:
This results in higher register usage, but should make it easier for
the compiler to hide latency.
This pass is a prerequisite for some more scheduler improvements, and I
think the increase register usage with this patch is acceptable, because
when combined with the scheduler improvements, the total register usage
will decrease.

We can wait on either VM, EXP or LGKM.
The waits are independent.
Without this patch, a wait inserted because of one of them
would also wait for all the previous others.
This patch makes s_wait only wait for the ones we need for the next
instruction.
Here's an example of subtle perf reduction this patch solves:
This is without the patch:
buffer_load_format_xyzw v[8:11], v0, s[44:47], 0 idxen
buffer_load_format_xyzw v[12:15], v0, s[48:51], 0 idxen
s_load_dwordx4 s[44:47], s[8:9], 0xc
s_waitcnt lgkmcnt(0)
buffer_load_format_xyzw v[16:19], v0, s[52:55], 0 idxen
s_load_dwordx4 s[48:51], s[8:9], 0x10
s_waitcnt vmcnt(1)
buffer_load_format_xyzw v[20:23], v0, s[44:47], 0 idxen
The s_waitcnt vmcnt(1) is useless.
The reason it is added is because the last
buffer_load_format_xyzw needs s[44:47], which was issued
by the first s_load_dwordx4. It waits for all VM
before that call to have finished.
Internally after every instruction, 3 counters (for VM, EXP and LGTM)
are updated after every instruction. For example buffer_load_format_xyzw
will
increase the VM counter, and s_load_dwordx4 the LGKM one.
Without the patch, for every defined register,
the current 3 counters are stored, and are used to know
how long to wait when an instruction needs the register.
Because of that, the s[44:47] counter includes that to use the register
you need to wait for the previous buffer_load_format_xyzw.
Instead this patch stores only the counters that matter for the
register,
and puts zero for the other ones, since we don't need any wait for them.
