PowerPC: Promote 32-bit ops to 64-bit in place for EXTSW elimination (#229054)

promoteInstr32To64ForElimEXTSW rebuilt a 32-bit instruction as its
64-bit counterpart (e.g. SRAWI -> SRAWI8) with BuildMI, which adds the opcode's
implicit defs, and then copied over the original operands, which already carry them. 
This produced duplicate, inconsistent defs:

%8:g8rc = SRAWI8 killed %7, 8, implicit-def $carry, implicit-def dead $carry

The 32-bit and 64-bit opcodes have the same operand layout, so mutate the 
original instruction with setDesc instead. This keeps the original implicit defs 
with their dead flags, and also preserves the memoperands and MI flags
that rebuilding dropped. The preserved memoperand on a promoted LHA8 allows
the scheduler to reorder it with spills in aix-cc-abi.ll.

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.

For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

Getting in touch

Join the LLVM Discourse forums, Discord chat, LLVM Office Hours or Regular sync-ups.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
