It's currently quite difficult to test passes like branch relaxation, which requires branches with large displacement to be generated. The .space assembler directive makes it easy to create arbitrarily large basic blocks, but getInlineAsmLength is not able to parse it and so the size of the block is not correctly estimated. Other backends (AArch64, AMDGPU) introduce options just for testing that artificially restrict the ranges of branch instructions (e.g. aarch64-tbz-offset-bits). Although parsing a single form of the .space directive feels inelegant, it does allow a more direct testing approach. This patch adapts the .space parsing code from Mips16InstrInfo::getInlineAsmLength and removes it now the extra functionality is provided by the base implementation. I want to move this functionality to the generic getInlineAsmLength as 1) I need the same for RISC-V, and 2) I feel other backends will benefit from more direct testing of large branch displacements.
