Kristof Beyls eecb353d0e [ARM] Make -mcpu=generic schedule for an in-order core (Cortex-A8).
The benchmarking summarized in
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-May/113525.html showed
this is beneficial for a wide range of cores.

As is to be expected, quite a few small adaptations are needed to the
regressions tests, as the difference in scheduling results in:
- Quite a few small instruction schedule differences.
- A few changes in register allocation decisions caused by different
 instruction schedules.
- A few changes in IfConversion decisions, due to a difference in
 instruction schedule and/or the estimated cost of a branch mispredict.

Javed Absar 4ae7e81233 [ARM] Cortex-A57 scheduling model for ARM backend (AArch32)
This patch implements the Cortex-A57 scheduling model.
The main code is in ARMScheduleA57.td, ARMScheduleA57WriteRes.td.
Small changes in cpp,.h files to support required scheduling predicates.

Scheduling model implemented according to:
