Hi All!
Second patch enables several Silvermont uarch features which improve
performance of the new processor (based on experiments on real SLM
hardware):
1. If using a 2-source or 3-source LEA for non-destructive destination
purposes, or due to wanting ability to use SCALE, the use of LEA is
preferable.
2. Transformation of FP conversion for memory operands into conversion
from register.
3. Couple of improvements for post-reload scheduling:
- increase latency of integer loads and load/store with exact dependence;
- simple re-ordering of the top of ready list - if 2 instructions
at the top of the list have the same priority we consider instruction
which producer(s) were scheduled earlier as the best candidate.
Bootstrapped and tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, ok for trunk?
