Adrian Prantl c133d8a5be EmitFuncArgumentDbgValue: Prefer stack slots over registers for stack arguments
While investigating LLVM PR22316 (http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=22316)
I started wondering if it were not always preferable to emit the
initial DBG_VALUEs for stack arguments as FI locations instead of
describing the first register they get copied into. The advantage of
doing this is that the arguments will be available as soon as the
stack is setup. As illustrated by the testcase in the PR, the first
copy of the FI into a register may be sunk by MachineSink.cpp into a
later basic block. By describing the argument on the stack, we nicely
circumvent this problem.
