Summary:
By removing FeatureNoARM implies ModeThumb, we can detect cases where a
function's target-features contain -thumb-mode (enables ARM codegen for the
function), but the architecture does not support ARM mode. Previously, the
implication caused the FeatureNoARM bit to be cleared for functions with
-thumb-mode, making the assertion in ARMSubtarget::ARMSubtarget [1]
pointless for such functions.
This assertion is the only guard against generating ARM code for
architectures without ARM codegen support. Is there a place where we
could easily generate error messages for the user? At the moment, we
would generate ARM code for Thumb-only architectures. X86 has the same
behavior as ARM, as in it only has an assertion and no error message,
but I think for ARM an error message would be helpful. What do you
think?
For the example below, `llc -mtriple=armv7m-eabi test.ll -o -` will
generate ARM assembler (or fail with an assertion error with this patch).
Note that if we run the resulting assembler through llvm-mc, we get
an appropriate error message, but not when codegen is handled
through clang.

define void @bar() #0 {
entry:
ret void
}
attributes #0 = { "target-features"="-thumb-mode" }

The current heuristic in isProfitableToIfCvt assumes we have a branch predictor,
and so gives the wrong answer in some cases when we don't. This patch adds a
subtarget feature to indicate that a subtarget has no branch predictor, and
changes the heuristic in isProfitableToiIfCvt when it's present. This gives a
slight overall improvement in a set of embedded benchmarks on Cortex-M4 and
Cortex-M33.

The benchmarking summarized in
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-May/113525.html showed
this is beneficial for a wide range of cores.
As is to be expected, quite a few small adaptations are needed to the
regressions tests, as the difference in scheduling results in:
- Quite a few small instruction schedule differences.
- A few changes in register allocation decisions caused by different
instruction schedules.
- A few changes in IfConversion decisions, due to a difference in
instruction schedule and/or the estimated cost of a branch mispredict.

exist it's identical to the arm1176jz-f from LLVM's point of view (the

The hardware div feature refers only to Thumb, but because of its name
it is tempting to use it to check for hardware division in general,
which may cause problems in ARM mode. See https://reviews.llvm.org/D32005.
This patch adds "Thumb" to its name, to make its scope clear. One
notable place where I haven't made the change is in the feature flag
(used with -mattr), which is still hwdiv. Changing it would also require
changes in a lot of tests, including clang tests, and it doesn't seem
like it's worth the effort.

Summary:
To support negative immediates for certain arithmetic instructions, the
instruction is converted to the inverse instruction with a negated (or inverted)
immediate. For example, "ADD r0, r1, #FFFFFFFF" cannot be encoded as an ADD
instruction. However, "SUB r0, r1, #1" is equivalent.
These conversions are different from instruction aliases. An alias maps
several assembler instructions onto one encoding. A conversion, however, maps
an *invalid* instruction--e.g. with an immediate that cannot be represented in
the encoding--to a different (but equivalent) instruction.
Several instructions with negative immediates were being converted already, but
this was not systematically tested, nor did it cover all instructions.
This patch implements all possible substitutions for ARM, Thumb1 and
Thumb2 assembler and adds tests. It also adds a feature flag
(-mattr=+no-neg-immediates) to turn these substitutions off. This is
helpful for users who want their code to assemble to exactly what they
wrote.

This patch assigns cost of the scaling used in addressing.
On many ARM cores, a negated register offset takes longer than a
non-negated register offset, in a register-offset addressing mode.
For instance:
LDR R0, [R1, R2 LSL #2]
LDR R0, [R1, -R2 LSL #2]
Above, (1) takes less cycles than (2).
By assigning appropriate scaling factor cost, we enable the LLVM
to make the right trade-offs in the optimization and code-selection phase.

This is a follow-up for r273544.
The end goal is to get rid of the isSwift / isCortexXY / isWhatever methods.
This commit also removes a command line flag that isn't used in any of the tests:
check-vmlx-hazards. It can be replaced easily with the mattr mechanism, since
this is now a subtarget feature.
There is still some work left regarding FeatureExpandMLx. In the past MLx
expansion was enabled for subtargets with hasVFP2(), until r129775 [1] switched
from that to isCortexA9, without too much justification.
In spite of that, the code performing MLx expansion still contains calls to
isSwift/isLikeA9, although the results of those are pretty clear given that
we're only enabling it for the A9.
We should try to enable it for all targets that have FeatureHasVMLxHazards, as
it seems to be closely related to that behaviour, and if that is possible try to
clean up the MLx expansion pass from all calls to isWhatever. This will require
some performance testing, so it will be done in another patch.
