Florian Hahn 1ccc49924a [AArch64] Add getCFInstrCost, treat branches as free for throughput.
D79164/2596da31740f changed getCFInstrCost to return 1 per default.
AArch64 did not have its own implementation, hence the throughput cost
of CFI instructions is overestimated. On most cores, most branches should
be predicated and essentially free throughput wise.

This restores a 9% performance regression on a SPEC2006 benchmark on
AArch64 with -O3 LTO & PGO.

This patch effectively restores pre 2596da3174 behavior for AArch64
and undoes the AArch64 test changes of the patch.

Sam Parker 2596da3174 [CostModel] getCFInstrCost in getUserCost.
Have BasicTTI call the base implementation so that both agree on the
default behaviour, which the default being a cost of '1'. This has
required an X86 specific implementation as it seems to be very
reliant on those instructions being free. Changes are also made to
AMDGPU so that their implementations distinguish between cost kinds,
so that the unrolling isn't affected. PowerPC also has its own
implementation to prevent changes to the reg-usage vectorizer test.

The cost model test changes now reflect that ret instructions are not
generally free.

Sjoerd Meijer 9529597cf4 Recommit #2: "[LV] Induction Variable does not remain scalar under tail-folding."
This was reverted because of a miscompilation. At closer inspection, the
problem was actually visible in a changed llvm regression test too. This
one-line follow up fix/recommit will splat the IV, which is what we are trying
to avoid if unnecessary in general, if tail-folding is requested even if all
users are scalar instructions after vectorisation. Because with tail-folding,
the splat IV will be used by the predicate of the masked loads/stores
instructions. The previous version omitted this, which caused the
miscompilation. The original commit message was:

If tail-folding of the scalar remainder loop is applied, the primary induction
variable is splat to a vector and used by the masked load/store vector
instructions, thus the IV does not remain scalar. Because we now mark
that the IV does not remain scalar for these cases, we don't emit the vector IV
if it is not used. Thus, the vectoriser produces less dead code.

Thanks to Ayal Zaks for the direction how to fix this.

Francesco Petrogalli 66c120f025 [VectorUtils] Rework the Vector Function Database (VFDatabase).
Summary:
This commits is a rework of the patch in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D67572.

The rework was requested to prevent out-of-tree performance regression
when vectorizing out-of-tree IR intrinsics. The vectorization of such
intrinsics is enquired via the static function `isTLIScalarize`. For
detail see the discussion in https://reviews.llvm.org/D67572.

Florian Hahn 9428d95ce7 [LV] Exclude loop-invariant inputs from scalar cost computation.
Loop invariant operands do not need to be scalarized, as we are using
the values outside the loop. We should ignore them when computing the
scalarization overhead.
