This patch adds the necessary infrastructure to convert instructions that
take two register operands to those that take a register and immediate if
the necessary operand is produced by a load-immediate. Furthermore, it uses
this infrastructure to perform such conversions twice - first at MachineSSA
and then pre-emit.
There are a number of reasons we may end up with opportunities for this
transformation, including but not limited to:
- X-Form instructions chosen since the exact offset isn't available at ISEL time
- Atomic instructions with constant operands (we will add patterns for this
in the future)
- Tail duplication may duplicate code where one block contains this redundancy
- When emitting compare-free code in PPCDAGToDAGISel, we don't handle constant
comparands specially
Furthermore, this patch moves the initialization of PPCMIPeepholePass so that
it can be used for MIR tests.

The VSX versions have the advantage of a full 64-register target whereas the FP
ones have the advantage of lower latency and higher throughput. So what we’re
after is using the faster instructions in low register pressure situations and
using the larger register file in high register pressure situations.
The heuristic chooses between the following 7 pairs of instructions.
PPC::LXSSPX vs PPC::LFSX
PPC::LXSDX vs PPC::LFDX
PPC::STXSSPX vs PPC::STFSX
PPC::STXSDX vs PPC::STFDX
PPC::LXSIWAX vs PPC::LFIWAX
PPC::LXSIWZX vs PPC::LFIWZX
PPC::STXSIWX vs PPC::STFIWX

This patch just adds printing of CR bit registers in a more human-readable
form akin to that used by the GNU binutils.

As outlined in the PR, we didn't ensure that displacements for DQ-Form
instructions are multiples of 16. Since the instruction encoding encodes
a quad-word displacement, a sub-16 byte displacement is meaningless and
ends up being encoded incorrectly.

For this example:
float test (int *arr) {
return arr[2];
}
We currently generate the following code:
li r4, 8
lxsiwax f0, r3, r4
xscvsxdsp f1, f0
With this patch, we will now generate:
addi r3, r3, 8
lxsiwax f0, 0, r3
xscvsxdsp f1, f0

Fixes PR30730.
This is a re-commit of a pulled commit. The commit was pulled because some
software projects contained uses of Altivec vectors that violated alignment
requirements. Known issues have now been fixed.

some other minor corrections.

This is the final patch in the series of patches that improves
BUILD_VECTOR handling on PowerPC. This adds a few peephole optimizations
to remove redundant instructions. It also adds a large test case which
encompasses a large set of code patterns that build vectors - this test
case was the motivator for this series of patches.
