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.

With this change, ideally IR pass can always generate llvm.stackguard
call to get the stack guard; but for now there are still IR form stack
guard customizations around (see getIRStackGuard()). Future SSP
customization should go through LOAD_STACK_GUARD.
There is a behavior change: stack guard values are not CSEed anymore,
since we should never reuse the value in case that it has been spilled (and
corrupted). See ssp-guard-spill.ll. This also cause the change of stack
size and codegen in X86 and AArch64 test cases.
Ideally we'd like to know if the guard created in llvm.stackprotector() gets
spilled or not. If the value is spilled, discard the value and reload
stack guard; otherwise reuse the value. This can be done by teaching
register allocator to know how to rematerialize LOAD_STACK_GUARD and
force a rematerialization (which seems hard), or check for spilling in
expandPostRAPseudo. It only makes sense when the stack guard is a global
variable, which requires more instructions to load. Anyway, this seems to go out
of the scope of the current patch.

realignment should be forced.
With this commit, we can now force stack realignment when doing LTO and
do so on a per-function basis. Also, add a new cl::opt option
"stackrealign" to CommandFlags.h which is used to force stack
realignment via llc's command line.
Out-of-tree projects currently using -force-align-stack to force stack
realignment should make changes to attach the attribute to the functions
in the IR.

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))

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.

It is intended to fix PR11468.
Old prologue and epilogue looked like this:
push %rbp
mov %rsp, %rbp
and $alignment, %rsp
push %r14
push %r15
...
pop %r15
pop %r14
mov %rbp, %rsp
pop %rbp
The problem was to reference the locations of callee-saved registers in exception handling:
locations of callee-saved had to be re-calculated regarding the stack alignment operation. It would
take some effort to implement this in LLVM, as currently MachineLocation can only have the form
"Register + Offset". Funciton prologue and epilogue are now changed to:
push %rbp
mov %rsp, %rbp
push %14
push %15
and $alignment, %rsp
...
lea -$size_of_saved_registers(%rbp), %rsp
pop %r15
pop %r14
pop %rbp

This patch causes problems when both dynamic stack realignment and
dynamic allocas combine in the same function. With this patch, we no
longer build the epilog correctly, and silently restore registers from
the wrong position in the stack.
Thanks to Matt for tracking this down, and getting at least an initial
test case to Chad. I'm going to try to check a variation of that test
case in so we can easily track the fixes required.
