Oh, that's annoying... I hadn't considered the case of a struct of size 3/5/6/7.
Like I noted on D126811, attaching thunks to calls is tricky if we try to do it
from clang.
Computing the right IR type shouldn't be that hard by itself; we can call into
call lowering code in TargetInfo without modifying much else. (We just need a
bit to tell the TargetInfo to redirect the call, like D125419. Use an entry
point like CodeGenTypes::arrangeCall.) You don't need to mess with the type
system or anything like that.
The problem is correctly representing the lowered call in IR; we really don't
want to do lowering early because it will block optimizations. I considered
using an operand bundle; we can probably make that work, but it's complicated,
and probably disables some optimizations.
I think the best thing we can do here is add an IR attribute to mark arguments
which are passed directly on AArch64, but need to be passed indirectly for the
x64 ABI. Then AArch64Arm64ECCallLowering can check for the attribute and
modify its behavior. This isn't really clean in the sense that it's specific
to the x64/aarch64 pair of calling conventions, but I think the alternative is
worse.
