these patches are tested a lot by test-suite but
make check tests are forthcoming once the next
few patches that complete this are committed.
with the next few patches the pass rate for mips16 is

physical register $r1 to $r0.
GNU disassembler recognizes an "or" instruction as a "move", and this change
makes the disassembled code easier to read.
Original patch by Reed Kotler.
llvm-svn: 170655
Mips16 is really a processor decoding mode (ala thumb 1) and in the same
program, mips16 and mips32 functions can exist and can call each other.
If a jal type instruction encounters an address with the lower bit set, then
the processor switches to mips16 mode (if it is not already in it). If the
lower bit is not set, then it switches to mips32 mode.
The linker knows which functions are mips16 and which are mips32.
When relocation is performed on code labels, this lower order bit is
set if the code label is a mips16 code label.
In general this works just fine, however when creating exception handling
tables and dwarf, there are cases where you don't want this lower order
bit added in.
This has been traditionally distinguished in gas assembly source by using a
different syntax for the label.
lab1: ; this will cause the lower order bit to be added
lab2=. ; this will not cause the lower order bit to be added
In some cases, it does not matter because in dwarf and debug tables
the difference of two labels is used and in that case the lower order
bits subtract each other out.
To fix this, I have added to mcstreamer the notion of a debuglabel.
The default is for label and debug label to be the same. So calling
EmitLabel and EmitDebugLabel produce the same result.
For various reasons, there is only one set of labels that needs to be
modified for the mips exceptions to work. These are the "$eh_func_beginXXX"
labels.
Mips overrides the debug label suffix from ":" to "=." .
This initial patch fixes exceptions. More changes most likely
will be needed to DwarfCFException to make all of this work
for actual debugging. These changes will be to emit debug labels in some
places where a simple label is emitted now.

In this case, essentially it is soft float with different library routines.
The next step will be to make this fully interoperational with mips32 floating
point and that requires creating stubs for functions with signatures that
contain floating point types.
I have a more sophisticated design for mips16 hardfloat which I hope to
implement at a later time that directly does floating point without the need
for function calls.
The mips16 encoding has no floating point instructions so one needs to
switch to mips32 mode to execute floating point instructions.

Accordingly, add helper funtions getSimpleValueType (in parallel to
getValueType) in SDValue, SDNode, and TargetLowering.
This is the first, in a series of patches.
This is the second attempt. In the first attempt (r169837), a few
getSimpleVT() were hoisted too far, detected by bootstrap failures.

mention the inline memcpy / memset expansion code is a mess?
This patch split the ZeroOrLdSrc argument into two: IsMemset and ZeroMemset.
The first indicates whether it is expanding a memset or a memcpy / memmove.
The later is whether the memset is a memset of zero. It's totally possible
(likely even) that targets may want to do different things for memcpy and
memset of zero.

Also added more comments to explain why it is generally ok to return true.
- Rename getOptimalMemOpType argument IsZeroVal to ZeroOrLdSrc. It's meant to
be true for loaded source (memcpy) or zero constants (memset). The poor name
choice is probably some kind of legacy issue.

1. Teach it to use overlapping unaligned load / store to copy / set the trailing
bytes. e.g. On 86, use two pairs of movups / movaps for 17 - 31 byte copies.
2. Use f64 for memcpy / memset on targets where i64 is not legal but f64 is. e.g.
x86 and ARM.
3. When memcpy from a constant string, do *not* replace the load with a constant
if it's not possible to materialize an integer immediate with a single
instruction (required a new target hook: TLI.isIntImmLegal()).
4. Use unaligned load / stores more aggressively if target hooks indicates they
are "fast".
5. Update ARM target hooks to use unaligned load / stores. e.g. vld1.8 / vst1.8.
Also increase the threshold to something reasonable (8 for memset, 4 pairs
for memcpy).
This significantly improves Dhrystone, up to 50% on ARM iOS devices.
