This changes the SelectionDAG scheduling preference to source
order. Soon, the SelectionDAG scheduler can be bypassed saving
a nice chunk of compile time.
Performance differences that result from this change are often a
consequence of register coalescing. The register coalescer is far from
perfect. Bugs can be filed for deficiencies.
On x86 SandyBridge/Haswell, the source order schedule is often
preserved, particularly for small blocks.
Register pressure is generally improved over the SD scheduler's ILP
mode. However, we are still able to handle large blocks that require
latency hiding, unlike the SD scheduler's BURR mode. MI scheduler also
attempts to discover the critical path in single-block loops and
adjust heuristics accordingly.
The MI scheduler relies on the new machine model. This is currently
unimplemented for AVX, so we may not be generating the best code yet.
Unit tests are updated so they don't depend on SD scheduling heuristics.

I really need to find a way to automate this, but I can't come up with a regex
that has no false positives while handling tricky cases like custom check
prefixes.

when run on an Intel Atom processor. The failures have arisen due
to changes elsewhere in the trunk over the past 8 weeks or so.
These failures were not detected by the Atom buildbot because the
CPU on the Atom buildbot was not being detected as an Atom CPU.
The fix for this problem is in Host.cpp and X86Subtarget.cpp, but
shall remain commented out until the current set of Atom test failures
are fixed.

This was done through the aid of a terrible Perl creation. I will not
paste any of the horrors here. Suffice to say, it require multiple
staged rounds of replacements, state carried between, and a few
nested-construct-parsing hacks that I'm not proud of. It happens, by
luck, to be able to deal with all the TCL-quoting patterns in evidence
in the LLVM test suite.
If anyone is maintaining large out-of-tree test trees, feel free to poke
me and I'll send you the steps I used to convert things, as well as
answer any painful questions etc. IRC works best for this type of thing
I find.
Once converted, switch the LLVM lit config to use ShTests the same as
Clang. In addition to being able to delete large amounts of Python code
from 'lit', this will also simplify the entire test suite and some of
lit's architecture.
Finally, the test suite runs 33% faster on Linux now. ;]

bug fixes, and with improved heuristics for analyzing foreign-loop
addrecs.
This change also flattens IVUsers, eliminating the stride-oriented
groupings, which makes it easier to work with.

This new version is much more aggressive about doing "full" reduction in
cases where it reduces register pressure, and also more aggressive about
rewriting induction variables to count down (or up) to zero when doing so
reduces register pressure.
It currently uses fairly simplistic algorithms for finding reuse
opportunities, but it introduces a new framework allows it to combine
multiple strategies at once to form hybrid solutions, instead of doing
all full-reduction or all base+index.

integer and floating-point opcodes, introducing
FAdd, FSub, and FMul.
For now, the AsmParser, BitcodeReader, and IRBuilder all preserve
backwards compatability, and the Core LLVM APIs preserve backwards
compatibility for IR producers. Most front-ends won't need to change
immediately.
This implements the first step of the plan outlined here:

reduction of address calculations down to basic pointer arithmetic.
This is currently off by default, as it needs a few other features
before it becomes generally useful. And even when enabled, full
strength reduction is only performed when it doesn't increase
register pressure, and when several other conditions are true.
This also factors out a bunch of exisiting LSR code out of
StrengthReduceStridedIVUsers into separate functions, and tidies
up IV insertion. This actually decreases register pressure even
in non-superhero mode. The change in iv-users-in-other-loops.ll
is an example of this; there are two more adds because there are
two fewer leas, and there is less spilling.
