Summary:
Replace a LEA instruction of the form 'lea (%esp), %ebx' --> 'mov %esp, %ebx'
MOV is preferable over LEA because usually there are more issue-slots available to execute MOVs than LEAs. Latest processors also support zero-latency MOVs.
Fixes pr29022.

The size savings are significant, and from what I can tell, both ICC and GCC do this.

Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.
A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)
import fileinput
import sys
import re
pat = re.compile(r"((?:=|:|^)\s*load (?:atomic )?(?:volatile )?(.*?))(| addrspace\(\d+\) *)\*($| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$)")
for line in sys.stdin:
sys.stdout.write(re.sub(pat, r"\1, \2\3*\4", line))

Under many circumstances the stack is not 32-byte aligned, resulting in the use of the vmovups/vmovupd/vmovdqu instructions when inserting ymm reloads/spills.
This minor patch adds these instructions to the isFrameLoadOpcode/isFrameStoreOpcode helpers so that they can be correctly identified and not be treated as folded reloads/spills.
This has also been noticed by http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=18846 where it was causing redundant spills - I've added a reduced test case at test/CodeGen/X86/pr18846.ll

This patch enables LLVM to emit Win64-native unwind info rather than
DWARF CFI. It handles all corner cases (I hope), including stack
realignment.
Because the unwind info is not flexible enough to describe stack frames
with a gap of unknown size in the middle, such as the one caused by
stack realignment, I modified register spilling code to place all spills
into the fixed frame slots, so that they can be accessed relative to the
frame pointer.

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.

This pass was conservative in that it always reserved the FP to enable dynamic
stack realignment, which allowed the RA to use aligned spills for vector
registers. This happens even when spills were not necessary. The RA has
since been improved to use unaligned spills when necessary.
The new behavior is to realign the stack if the frame pointer was already
reserved for some other reason, but don't reserve the frame pointer just
because a function contains vector virtual registers.
