Summary:
This is patch #3 of the new DivergenceAnalysis
<https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2018-May/123606.html>
The GPUDivergenceAnalysis is intended to eventually supersede the existing
LegacyDivergenceAnalysis. The existing LegacyDivergenceAnalysis produces
incorrect results on unstructured Control-Flow Graphs:
<https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37185>
This patch adds the option -use-gpu-divergence-analysis to the
LegacyDivergenceAnalysis to turn it into a transparent wrapper for the
GPUDivergenceAnalysis.

Summary:
This is patch 1 of the new DivergenceAnalysis (https://reviews.llvm.org/D50433).
The purpose of this patch is to free up the name DivergenceAnalysis for the new generic
implementation. The generic implementation class will be shared by specialized
divergence analysis classes.

- Rename the ptx.read.* intrinsics to nvvm.read.ptx.sreg.* - some but
not all of these registers were already accessible via the nvvm
name.
- Rename ptx.bar.sync nvvm.bar.sync, to match nvvm.bar0.
There's a fair amount of code motion here, but it's all very
mechanical.

Summary:
Some optimizations such as jump threading and loop unswitching can negatively
affect performance when applied to divergent branches. The divergence analysis
added in this patch conservatively estimates which branches in a GPU program
can diverge. This information can then help LLVM to run certain optimizations
selectively.
