[AMDGPU][SIInsertWaitCnt] Optimize loadcnt insertion at function boundaries (#169647)

On GFX12+, GLOBAL_INV increments the loadcnt counter but does not write
results to any VGPRs. Previously, we unconditionally inserted
s_wait_loadcnt 0 at function returns even when the only pending loadcnt
was from GLOBAL_INV instructions.

This patch optimizes waitcnt insertion by skipping the loadcnt wait at
function boundaries when no VGPRs have pending loads. This is determined
by checking if any VGPR has a score greater than the lower bound for
LOAD_CNT - if not, the pending loadcnt must be from non-VGPR-writing
instructions like GLOBAL_INV.

The optimization is limited to GFX12+ targets where GLOBAL_INV exists
and uses the extended wait count instructions.

This is a follow-up optimization to PR #135340 which added tracking for
GLOBAL_INV in the waitcnt pass.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
