Andrea Di Biagio 7fb85256bc [X86] Improve the selection of SSE3/AVX addsub instructions.
This patch teaches the backend how to canonicalize a shuffle vectors
according to the rule:

 - (shuffle (FADD A, B), (FSUB A, B), Mask) ->
       (shuffle (FSUB A, -B), (FADD A, -B), Mask)

Where 'Mask' is:
  <0,5,2,7>            ;; for v4f32 and v4f64 shuffles.
  <0,3>                ;; for v2f64 shuffles.
  <0,9,2,11,4,13,6,15> ;; for v8f32 shuffles.

In general, ISel only knows how to pattern-match a canonical
'fadd + fsub + blendi' dag node sequence into an ADDSUB instruction.

This new rule allows to convert a non-canonical dag sequence into a
canonical one that will be matched by a single ADDSUB at ISel stage.

The idea of converting a non-canonical ADDSUB into a canonical one by
swapping the first two operands of the shuffle, and then negating the
second operand of the FADD and FSUB, was originally proposed by Hal Finkel.

Low Level Virtual Machine (LLVM)
================================

This directory and its subdirectories contain source code for the Low Level
Virtual Machine, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers,
optimizers, and runtime environments.

the license agreement found in LICENSE.txt.

Please see the documentation provided in docs/ for further
assistance with LLVM, and in particular docs/GettingStarted.rst for getting
started with LLVM and docs/README.txt for an overview of LLVM's
documentation setup.
