Andrew Trick e97d8d6dde Enable MI Sched for x86.
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.

Stephen Lin f799e3f944 Convert CodeGen/*/*.ll tests to use the new CHECK-LABEL for easier debugging. No functionality change and all tests pass after conversion.
This was done with the following sed invocation to catch label lines demarking function boundaries:
    sed -i '' "s/^;\( *\)\([A-Z0-9_]*\):\( *\)test\([A-Za-z0-9_-]*\):\( *\)$/;\1\2-LABEL:\3test\4:\5/g" test/CodeGen/*/*.ll
which was written conservatively to avoid false positives rather than false negatives. I scanned through all the changes and everything looks correct.

Andrew Trick 5a1e0af838 Temporarily enable MI-Sched on X86.
Sorry for the unit test churn. I'll try to make the change permanently
next time.

Eric Christopher b27cd8bea6 Reapply "Subtract isn't commutative, fix this for MMX psub." with
a somewhat randomly chosen cpu that will minimize cpu specific
differences on bots.

Eric Christopher 3eee7454cf Temporarily revert "Subtract isn't commutative, fix this for MMX psub."
It's causing failures on the atom bot.
