GlobalOpt runs early in the pipeline (before inlining) and complex class
hierarchies often introduce bitcasts or GEPs which weren't optimized away.
Teach it to ignore side-effect free instructions instead of depending on
other passes to remove them.

* Most of the transforms come through intact by having each transformed load or
store copy the ordering and synchronization scope of the original.
* The transform that turns a global only accessed in main() into an alloca
(since main is non-recursive) with a store of the initial value uses an
unordered store, since it's guaranteed to be the first thing to happen in main.
(Threads may have started before main (!) but they can't have the address of a
function local before the point in the entry block we insert our code.)
* The heap-SRoA transforms are disabled in the face of atomic operations. This
can probably be improved; it seems odd to have atomic accesses to an alloca
that doesn't have its address taken.
AnalyzeGlobal keeps track of the strongest ordering found in any use of the
global. This is more information than we need right now, but it's cheap to
compute and likely to be useful.

of the instruction.
Note that this change affects the existing non-atomic load and store
instructions; the parser now accepts both forms, and the change is noted
in the release notes.

patch brings numerous advantages to LLVM. One way to look at it
is through diffstat:
109 files changed, 3005 insertions(+), 5906 deletions(-)
Removing almost 3K lines of code is a good thing. Other advantages
include:
1. Value::getType() is a simple load that can be CSE'd, not a mutating
union-find operation.
2. Types a uniqued and never move once created, defining away PATypeHolder.
3. Structs can be "named" now, and their name is part of the identity that
uniques them. This means that the compiler doesn't merge them structurally
which makes the IR much less confusing.
4. Now that there is no way to get a cycle in a type graph without a named
struct type, "upreferences" go away.
5. Type refinement is completely gone, which should make LTO much MUCH faster
in some common cases with C++ code.
6. Types are now generally immutable, so we can use "Type *" instead
"const Type *" everywhere.
Downsides of this patch are that it removes some functions from the C API,
so people using those will have to upgrade to (not yet added) new API.
"LLVM 3.0" is the right time to do this.
There are still some cleanups pending after this, this patch is large enough
as-is.

As usual, updating the testsuite is a PITA.

Simulate memset in EvaluateFunction where the target of the memset and the

RAUW of a global variable with a local variable in function F,
if function local metadata M in function G was using the global
then M would become function-local to both F and G, which is not
allowed. See the testcase for an example. Fixed by detecting
this situation and zapping the metadata operand when it occurs.

to an element of a vector in a static ctor) which occurs with an
unrelated patch I'm testing. Annoyingly, EvaluateStoreInto basically
does exactly the same stuff as InsertElement constant folding, but it
now handles vectors, and you can't insertelement into a vector. It
would be 'really nice' if GEP into a vector were not legal.

ConstantExpr, not just the top-level operator. This allows it to
fold many more constants.
Also, make GlobalOpt call ConstantFoldConstantExpression on
GlobalVariable initializers.

Here is the original commit message:
This commit updates malloc optimizations to operate on malloc calls that have constant int size arguments.
Update CreateMalloc so that its callers specify the size to allocate:
MallocInst-autoupgrade users use non-TargetData-computed allocation sizes.
Optimization uses use TargetData to compute the allocation size.
Now that malloc calls can have constant sizes, update isArrayMallocHelper() to use TargetData to determine the size of the malloced type and the size of malloced arrays.
Extend getMallocType() to support malloc calls that have non-bitcast uses.
Update OptimizeGlobalAddressOfMalloc() to optimize malloc calls that have non-bitcast uses. The bitcast use of a malloc call has to be treated specially here because the uses of the bitcast need to be replaced and the bitcast needs to be erased (just like the malloc call) for OptimizeGlobalAddressOfMalloc() to work correctly.
Update PerformHeapAllocSRoA() to optimize malloc calls that have non-bitcast uses. The bitcast use of the malloc is not handled specially here because ReplaceUsesOfMallocWithGlobal replaces through the bitcast use.
Update OptimizeOnceStoredGlobal() to not care about the malloc calls' bitcast use.
Update all globalopt malloc tests to not rely on autoupgraded-MallocInsts, but instead use explicit malloc calls with correct allocation sizes.

ArraySize * ElementSize
ElementSize * ArraySize
ArraySize << log2(ElementSize)
ElementSize << log2(ArraySize)
Refactor isArrayMallocHelper and delete isSafeToGetMallocArraySize, so that there is only 1 copy of the malloc array determining logic.
Update users of getMallocArraySize() to not bother calling isArrayMalloc() as well.
