// The MachineConstantPool class keeps track of constants referenced by a
// function which must be spilled to memory.  This is used for constants which
// are unable to be used directly as operands to instructions, which typically
// include floating point and large integer constants.
//
// Instructions reference the address of these constant pool constants through
// the use of MO_ConstantPoolIndex values.  When emitting assembly or machine
// code, these virtual address references are converted to refer to the
// address of the function constant pool values.
