  // RegisterMapping objects are mainly used to track physical register
  // definitions. A WriteState object describes a register definition, and it is
  // used to track RAW dependencies (see Instruction.h).  A RegisterMapping
  // object also specifies the set of register files.  The mapping between
  // physreg and register files is done using a "register file mask".
  //
  // A register file index identifies a user defined register file.
  // There is one index per RegisterMappingTracker, and index #0 is reserved to
  // the default unified register file.

  // This implementation does not allow overlapping register files. The only
  // register file that is allowed to overlap with other register files is
  // register file #0.

  // contains all the physical registers specified by the register classes in
  // the 'RegisterClasses' set.
  //
  // The long term goal is to let scheduling models optionally describe register
  // files via tablegen definitions. This is still a work in progress.
  // For example, here is how a tablegen definition for a x86 FP register file
  // that features AVX might look like:
  //
  //    def FPRegisterFile : RegisterFile<[VR128RegClass, VR256RegClass], 60>
  //
  // Here FPRegisterFile contains all the registers defined by register class
  // VR128RegClass and VR256RegClass. FPRegisterFile implements 60
  // registers which can be used for register renaming purpose.
  //
  // The list of register classes is then converted by the tablegen backend into
  // a list of register class indices. That list, along with the number of
  // available mappings, is then used to create a new RegisterMappingTracker.
