Failing example: v8i8 = truncate v8i32. v8i8 is legal, but v8i32 was
widened to HVX. Make sure that v8i8 does not get altered (even if it's
changed to another legal type).

because it caused gigantic increase (3x) in branch mispredictions

It has since been investigated and here are the results:

So let's just reland this.
Original commit message:
I've been looking at missed vectorizations in one codebase.
One particular thing that stands out is that some of the loops
reach vectorizer in a rather mangled form, with weird PHI's,
and some of the loops aren't even in a rotated form.
After taking a more detailed look, that happened because
the loop's headers were too big by then. It is evident that
SimplifyCFG's common code hoisting transform is at fault there,
because the pattern it handles is precisely the unrotated
loop basic block structure.
Surprizingly, `SimplifyCFGOpt::HoistThenElseCodeToIf()` is enabled
by default, and is always run, unlike it's friend, common code sinking
transform, `SinkCommonCodeFromPredecessors()`, which is not enabled
by default and is only run once very late in the pipeline.
I'm proposing to harmonize this, and disable common code hoisting
until //late// in pipeline. Definition of //late// may vary,
here currently i've picked the same one as for code sinking,
but i suppose we could enable it as soon as right after
loop rotation happens.
Experimentation shows that this does indeed unsurprizingly help,
more loops got rotated, although other issues remain elsewhere.
Now, this undoubtedly seriously shakes phase ordering.
This will undoubtedly be a mixed bag in terms of both compile- and
run- time performance, codesize. Since we no longer aggressively
hoist+deduplicate common code, we don't pay the price of said hoisting
(which wasn't big). That may allow more loops to be rotated,
so we pay that price. That, in turn, that may enable all the transforms
that require canonical (rotated) loop form, including but not limited to
vectorization, so we pay that too. And in general, no deduplication means
more [duplicate] instructions going through the optimizations. But there's still
late hoisting, some of them will be caught late.
As per benchmarks i've run {F12360204}, this is mostly within the noise,
there are some small improvements, some small regressions.
One big regression i saw i fixed in rG8d487668d09fb0e4e54f36207f07c1480ffabbfd, but i'm sure
this will expose many more pre-existing missed optimizations, as usual :S

There does not appear to be a proper solution to this issue,
other than silencing the compile-time performance regression
by tuning cut-off thresholds in `MemoryDependenceResults`,
at the cost of potentially regressing run-time performance.
D84609 attempts to move in that direction, but the path is unclear
and is going to take some time.
If we look at stats before/after diffs, some excerpts:
* RawSpeed (the target) {F12360200}
* -14 (-73.68%) loops not rotated due to the header size (yay)
* -272 (-0.67%) `"Number of live out of a loop variables"` - good for vectorizer
* -3937 (-64.19%) common instructions hoisted
* +561 (+0.06%) x86 asm instructions
* -2 basic blocks
* +2418 (+0.11%) IR instructions
* vanilla test-suite + RawSpeed + darktable {F12360201}
* -36396 (-65.29%) common instructions hoisted
* +1676 (+0.02%) x86 asm instructions
* +662 (+0.06%) basic blocks
* +4395 (+0.04%) IR instructions
It is likely to be sub-optimal for when optimizing for code size,
so one might want to change tune pipeline by enabling sinking/hoisting
when optimizing for size.

This reverts commit 503deec218.
Perfect shuffle instruction (vdealvdd/vshuffvdd) work on vector
pairs. When given a single input vector, half of it first needs
to be transposed into the other vector before the generated
shuffles can take effect. Also the first transpose needs to be
undone at the end (this last step was missing).
There's a special case in hasAttribute for None when pImpl is null. If pImpl is not null we dispatch to pImpl->hasAttribute which will always return false for Attribute::None.
So if we just want to check for None its sufficient to just check that pImpl is null. Which can even be done inline.
This patch adds a helper for that case which I hope will speed up our getSubtargetImpl implementations.

As disscussed in post-commit review starting with
https://reviews.llvm.org/D84108#2227365
while this appears to be mostly a win overall, especially code-size-wise,
this appears to shake //certain// code pattens in a way that is extremely
unfavorable for performance (+30% runtime regression)
on certain CPU's (i personally can't reproduce).
So until the behaviour is better understood, and a path forward is mapped,
let's back this out for now.
This reverts commit 1d51dc38d8.
This patch implements initial backend support for a -mtune CPU controlled by a "tune-cpu" function attribute. If the attribute is not present X86 will use the resolved CPU from target-cpu attribute or command line.
This patch adds MC layer support a tune CPU. Each CPU now has two sets of features stored in their GenSubtargetInfo.inc tables . These features lists are passed separately to the Processor and ProcessorModel classes in tablegen. The tune list defaults to an empty list to avoid changes to non-X86. This annoyingly increases the size of static tables on all target as we now store 24 more bytes per CPU. I haven't quantified the overall impact, but I can if we're concerned.
One new test is added to X86 to show a few tuning features with mismatched tune-cpu and target-cpu/target-feature attributes to demonstrate independent control. Another new test is added to demonstrate that the scheduler model follows the tune CPU.
I have not added a -mtune to llc/opt or MC layer command line yet. With no attributes we'll just use the -mcpu for both. MC layer tools will always follow the normal CPU for tuning.

Adds the function createMCInst() to MCContext that creates a MCInst using
a typed bump alloctor.
MCInst contains a SmallVector<MCOperand, 8>. The SmallVector is POD only
for <= 8 operands. The default untyped bump pointer allocator of MCContext
does not delete the MCInst, so if the SmallVector grows, it's a leak.
This fixes https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46900.
Summary: This patch separates the Loop Peeling Utilities from Loop Unrolling.
The reason for this change is that Loop Peeling is no longer only being used by
loop unrolling; Patch D82927 introduces loop peeling with fusion, such that
loops can be modified to have to same trip count, making them legal to be
peeled.

Currently, getCastInstrCost has limited information about the cast it's
rating, often just the opcode and types. Sometimes there is a context
instruction as well, but it isn't trustworthy: for instance, when the
vectorizer is rating a plan, it calls getCastInstrCost with the old
instructions when, in fact, it's trying to evaluate the cost of the
instruction post-vectorization. Thus, the current system can get the
cost of certain casts incorrect as the correct cost can vary greatly
based on the context in which it's used.
For example, if the vectorizer queries getCastInstrCost to evaluate the
cost of a sext(load) with tail predication enabled, getCastInstrCost
will think it's free most of the time, but it's not always free. On ARM
MVE, a VLD2 group cannot be extended like a normal VLDR can. Similar
situations can come up with how masked loads can be extended when being
split.
To fix that, this path adds a new parameter to getCastInstrCost to give
it a hint about the context of the cast. It adds a CastContextHint enum
which contains the type of the load/store being created by the
vectorizer - one for each of the types it can produce.

This reverts commit 1067d3e176,
which reverted commit b2018198c3,
because it introduced a Dependency Cycle between Transforms/Scalar and
Transforms/Utils.
So let's just move SimplifyCFGOptions.h into Utils/, thus avoiding
the cycle.
This reverts commit b2018198c3.
This commit introduced a Dependency Cycle between Transforms/Scalar and
Transforms/Utils. Transforms/Scalar already depends on Transforms/Utils,
so if SimplifyCFGOptions.h is moved to Scalar, and Utils/Local.h still
depends on it, we have a cycle.
Taking so many parameters is simply unmaintainable.
We don't want to include the entire llvm/Transforms/Utils/Local.h into
llvm/Transforms/Scalar.h so i've split SimplifyCFGOptions into
it's own header.
Summary:
This patch separates the peeling specific parameters from the UnrollingPreferences,
and creates a new struct called PeelingPreferences. Functions which used the
UnrollingPreferences struct for peeling have been updated to use the PeelingPreferences struct.

Before this instruction supported output values, it fit fairly
naturally as a terminator. However, being a terminator while also
supporting outputs causes some trouble, as the physreg->vreg COPY
operations cannot be in the same block.
Modeling it as a non-terminator allows it to be handled the same way
as invoke is handled already.
Most of the changes here were created by auditing all the existing
users of MachineBasicBlock::isEHPad() and
MachineBasicBlock::hasEHPadSuccessor(), and adding calls to
isInlineAsmBrIndirectTarget or mayHaveInlineAsmBr, as appropriate.
