This solves the problem of having a kill flag inside a loop
with a definition of the register prior to the loop:
%vreg368<def> ...
Inside loop:
%vreg520<def> = COPY %vreg368
%vreg568<def,tied1> = add %vreg341<tied0>, %vreg520<kill>
=> was coalesced into =>
%vreg568<def,tied1> = add %vreg341<tied0>, %vreg368<kill>
MachineVerifier then complained:
*** Bad machine code: Virtual register killed in block, but needed live out. ***
The kill flag for %vreg368 is incorrect, and is cleared by this patch.
This is similar to the clearing done at the end of
MachineSinking::SinkInstruction().

Summary:
Fixes a FIXME in MachineSinking. Instead of using the simple heuristics
in isPostDominatedBy, use the real MachinePostDominatorTree. The old
heuristics caused instructions to sink unnecessarily, and might create
register pressure.
Test Plan:
Added a NVPTX codegen test to verify that our change is in effect. It also
shows the unnecessary register pressure caused by over-sinking. Updated
affected tests in AArch64 and X86.

When sinking an instruction it might be moved past the original last use of one
of its operands. This last use has the kill flag set and the verifier will
obviously complain about this.
Before Machine Sinking (AArch64):
%vreg3<def> = ASRVXr %vreg1, %vreg2<kill>
%XZR<def> = SUBSXrs %vreg4, %vreg1<kill>, 160, %NZCV<imp-def>
...
After Machine Sinking:
%XZR<def> = SUBSXrs %vreg4, %vreg1<kill>, 160, %NZCV<imp-def>
...
%vreg3<def> = ASRVXr %vreg1, %vreg2<kill>
This fix clears all the kill flags in all instruction that use the same operands
as the instruction that is being sunk.

as long as possible.
** Context **
Each time the dominance information is modified, the dominator tree analysis
switches in a slow query mode. After a few queries without any modification on
the dominator tree, it performs an expensive update of its internal structure to
provide fast queries again.
** Problem **
Prior to this patch, the MachineSink pass was splitting the critical edges on
demand while relying heavy on the dominator tree information. In some cases,
this leads to pathological behavior where:
- We end up in the slow query mode right after splitting an edge.
- We update the dominance information.
- We break the dominance information again, thus ending up in the slow query
mode and so on.
** Proposed Solution **
To mitigate this effect, this patch postpones all the splitting of the edges at
the end of each iteration of the main loop.
The benefits are:
- The dominance information is valid for the life time of an iteration.
- This simplifies the code as we do not have to special treat instructions that
are sunk on critical edges. Indeed, the related block will be available
through the next iteration.
The downside is that when edges splitting is required, this incurs an additional
iteration of the main loop compared to the previous scheme.
** Performance **
Thanks to this patch, the motivating example compiles in 6+ minutes instead of
10+ minutes. No test case added as the motivating example as nothing special but
being huge!
I have measured only noise for both the compile time and the runtime on the llvm
test-suite + SPECs with Os and O3.
Note: The current implementation of MachineBasicBlock::SplitCriticalEdge also
uses the dominance information and therefore, hits this problem. A subsequent
patch will address that.

define below all header includes in the lib/CodeGen/... tree. While the
current modules implementation doesn't check for this kind of ODR
violation yet, it is likely to grow support for it in the future. It
also removes one layer of macro pollution across all the included
headers.
Other sub-trees will follow.

operator* on the by-operand iterators to return a MachineOperand& rather than
a MachineInstr&. At this point they almost behave like normal iterators!
Again, this requires making some existing loops more verbose, but should pave
the way for the big range-based for-loop cleanups in the future.

Per original comment, the intention of this loop
is to go ahead and break the critical edge
(in order to sink this instruction) if there's
reason to believe doing so might "unblock" the
sinking of additional instructions that define
registers used by this one. The idea is that if
we have a few instructions to sink "together"
breaking the edge might be worthwhile.
This commit makes a few small changes
to help better realize this goal:
First, modify the loop to ignore registers
defined by this instruction. We don't
sink definitions of physical registers,
and sinking an SSA definition isn't
going to unblock an upstream instruction.
Second, ignore uses of physical registers.
Instructions that define physical registers are
rejected for sinking, and so moving this one
won't enable moving any defining instructions.
As an added bonus, while virtual register
use-def chains are generally small due
to SSA goodness, iteration over the uses
and definitions (used by hasOneNonDBGUse)
for physical registers like EFLAGS
can be rather expensive in practice.
(This is the original reason for looking at this)
Finally, to keep things simple continue
to only consider this trick for registers that
have a single use (via hasOneNonDBGUse),
but to avoid spuriously breaking critical edges
only do so if the definition resides
in the same MBB and therefore this one directly
blocks it from being sunk as well.
If sinking them together is meant to be,
let the iterative nature of this pass
sink the definition into this block first.
Update tests to accomodate this change,
add new testcase where sinking avoids pipeline stalls.

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

One motivating example is to sink an instruction from a basic block which has
two successors: one outside the loop, the other inside the loop. We should try
to sink the instruction outside the loop.

Moving toward a uniform style of pass definition to allow easier target configuration.
Globally declare Pass ID.
Globally declare pass initializer.
Use INITIALIZE_PASS consistently.
Add a call to the initializer from CodeGen.cpp.
Remove redundant "createPass" functions and "getPassName" methods.
While cleaning up declarations, cleaned up comments (sorry for large diff).

On ARM, peephole optimization for ABS creates a trivial cfg triangle which tempts machine sink to sink instructions in code which is really straight line code. Sometimes this sinking may alter register allocator input such that use and def of a reg is divided by a branch in between, which may result in extra spills. Now mahine sink avoids sinking if final sink destination is post dominator.
