Newer POWER cores, and the A2, support the cmpb instruction. This instruction
compares its operands, treating each of the 8 bytes in the GPRs separately,
returning a 'mask' result of 0 (for false) or -1 (for true) in each byte.
Code generation support is added, in the form of a PPCISelDAGToDAG
DAG-preprocessing routine, that recognizes patterns close to what the
instruction computes (either exactly, or related by a constant masking
operation), and generates the cmpb instruction (along with any necessary
constant masking operation). This can be expanded if use cases arise.

Summary:
Currently, it supports generating, but not parsing, this expression.
Test added as well.
Test Plan: New test added, no regressions due to this.

Add assembler support for the fixed-point cache-inhibited load/store
instructions. These are hypervisor-level only, so don't get too excited ;)
Fixes PR21650.

The attn instruction is not part of the Power ISA, but is documented in the A2
user manual, and is accepted by the GNU assembler for the A2 and the POWER4+.
Reported as part of PR21650.

When processing an assignment in the integrated assembler that sets
a symbol to the value of another symbol, we need to copy the st_other
bits that encode the local entry point offset.
Modeled after MipsTargetELFStreamer::emitAssignment handling of the
ELF::STO_MIPS_MICROMIPS flag.

The VSX instruction definitions for lxsdx, lxvd2x, lxvdsx, and lxvw4x
incorrectly use the XForm_1 instruction format, rather than the
XX1Form instruction format. This is likely a pasto when creating
these instructions, which were based on lvx and so forth. This patch
uses the correct format.
The existing reformatting test (test/MC/PowerPC/vsx.s) missed this
because the two formats differ only in that XX1Form has an extension
to the target register field in bit 31. The tests for these
instructions used a target register of 7, so the default of 0 in bit
31 for XForm_1 didn't expose a problem. For register numbers 32-63
this would be noticeable. I've changed the test to use higher
register numbers to verify my change is effective.

Users of getSectionContents shouldn't try to pass in BSS or virtual
sections. In all instances, this is a bug in the code calling this
routine.
N.B. Some COFF implementations (like CL) will mark their BSS sections as
taking space on disk. This would confuse COFFObjectFile into thinking
the section is larger than the file.

Adds code generation support for dcbtst (data cache prefetch for write) and
icbt (instruction cache prefetch for read - Book E cores only).
We still end up with a 'cannot select' error for the non-supported prefetch
intrinsic forms. This will be fixed in a later commit.
Fixes PR20692.

when let can do the same thing. Keep the 64bit variants as codegen-only.
While they have a different register class, the encoding is the same for
32bit and 64bit mode. Having both present would otherwise confuse the
disassembler.

As discussed in a previous checking to support the .localentry
directive on PowerPC, we need to inspect the actual target symbol
in needsRelocateWithSymbol to make the appropriate decision based
on that symbol's st_other bits.
Currently, needsRelocateWithSymbol does not get the target symbol.
However, it is directly available to its sole caller. This patch
therefore simply extends the needsRelocateWithSymbol by a new
parameter "const MCSymbolData &SD", passes in the target symbol,
and updates all derived implementations.
In particular, in the PowerPC implementation, this patch removes
the FIXME added by the previous checkin.
