This adds the ability to use the GCNRPTrackers during scheduling. These trackers have several advantages over the generic trackers: 1. global live-thru trackers, 2. subregister based RP deltas, and 3. flexible vreg -> PressureSet mappings.
This feature is off-by-default to ease with the roll-out process. In particular, when using the optional trackers, the scheduler will still maintain the generic trackers leading to unnecessary compile time.
PressureDiff is reliable most of the time, and it's pretty much free
compared to RPTracker. We can use it whenever there is no subregister
definitions, or physregs invovled. No subregs because PDiff doesn't take
into account lane liveness, and no Physreg because it seems to get
PhysReg liveness completely wrong. Sometimes it adds a diff, sometimes
itt doesn't - I didn't look at that one for long so maybe there is
something we can eventually do to make it better.
This allows us to save a ton of calls to RPTracker and LIS too. On a
huge IR module (100+MB), it went from about 20M calls to RPTracker in this
function down to 3.4, with the rest being PressureDiffs.
I also added an expensive check to verify correctness of PressureDiff.
Unlike older ASICs GFX10+ have a lot of VGPRs. Therefore, it is possible
to achieve high occupancy even with all or almost all addressable VGPRs
used. Our scheduler was never tuned for this scenario. The VGPR Critical
Limit threshold always comes very high, even if maximum occupancy is
targeted. For example on gfx1100 it is set to 192 registers even with
the requested occupancy 16. As a result scheduler starts prioritizing
register pressure reduction very late and we easily end up spilling.
This patch makes VGPR critical limit similar to what we would have on
pre-gfx10 targets with much more limited VGPR budget while still trying
to maintain occupancy as it does now.
Pre-gfx10 ASICs shall not be affected as the limit shall be the same
as before, and on gfx10+ it shall only affect regions where we have
to spill.

Current implementation abuses ErrorMargin to apply an additional
bias to VGPR and SGPR limits under a high register pressure. The
ErrorMargin exists to account for inaccuracies of the RP tracker
and not to tackle an excess pressure. Introduce separate bias for
this purpose and also make it different for SGPRs and VGPRs as we
may want to use different values in the future.
This is supposed to be NFC, however there is a subtle difference
when subtracting a margin overflows the limit. Doing two subtractions
makes it less probable, although manifests only in mir tests with
an artificially small register budget.

Since the divergence-driven ISel was fully enabled we have more VGPRs available.
MachineScheduler trying to take advantage of that bumps up the occupancy sacrificing
the hiding of memory access latency. This really spoils the initially good schedule.
A new metric that reflects the latency hiding quality of the schedule has been created
to make it to balance between occupancy and latency. The metric is based on the latency
model which computes the bubble to working cycles ratio. Then we use this ratio to decide
if the higher occupancy schedule is profitable as follows:
Profit = NewOccupancy/OldOccupancy * OldMetric/NewMetric

This was stored in LiveIntervals, but not actually used for anything
related to LiveIntervals. It was only used in one check for if a load
instruction is rematerializable. I also don't think this was entirely
correct, since it was implicitly assuming constant loads are also
dereferenceable.
Remove this and rely only on the invariant+dereferenceable flags in
the memory operand. Set the flag based on the AA query upfront. This
should have the same net benefit, but has the possible disadvantage of
making this AA query nonlazy.
Preserve the behavior of assuming pointsToConstantMemory implying
dereferenceable for now, but maybe this should be changed.
Enable the PreRARematerialize pass when there are multiple high RP scheduling

Add a new pass in the pre-ra AMDGPU scheduler to check if sinking trivially rematerializable defs that only has one use outside of the defining block will increase occupancy. If we can determine that occupancy can be increased, then rematerialize only the minimum amount of defs required to increase occupancy. Also re-schedule all regions that had occupancy matching the previous min occupancy using the new occupancy.
This is based off of the discussion in https://reviews.llvm.org/D117562.
The logic to determine the defs we should collect and determining if sinking would be beneficial is mostly the same. Main differences is that we are no longer limiting it to immediate defs and the def and use does not have to be part of a loop.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

Keep track of achieved occupancy in SIMachineFunctionInfo.
At the moment we have a lot of duplicated or even missed code to
query and maintain occupancy info. Record it in the MFI and
query in a single call. Interfaces:
- getOccupancy() - returns current recorded achieved occupancy.
- getMinAllowedOccupancy() - returns lesser of the achieved occupancy
and the lowest occupancy we are ready to tolerate. For example if
a kernel is memory bound we are ready to tolerate 4 waves.
- limitOccupancy() - record occupancy level if we have to lower it.
- increaseOccupancy() - record occupancy if scheduler managed to
increase the occupancy.
MFI takes care of integrating different checks affecting occupancy,
including LDS use and waves-per-eu attribute. Note that scheduler
starts with not yet known register pressure, so has to record either
limit or increase in occupancy after it is done. Later passes can
just query a resulting value.
New interface is used in the active scheduler and NFC wrt its work.
Changes are also made to experimental schedulers to use it and record
an occupancy after they are done. Before the change waves-per-eu was
ignored by experimental schedulers and tolerance window for memory
bound kernels was not used.

Using LIS can be quite expensive, so caching of calculated region
live-ins and pressure is implemented. It does two things:
1. Caches the info for the second stage when we schedule with
decreased target occupancy.
2. Tracks the basic block from top to bottom thus eliminating the
need to scan whole register file liveness at every region split
in the middle of the block.
The scheduling is now done in 3 stages instead of two, with the first
one being really a no-op and only used to collect scheduling regions
as sent by the scheduler driver.
There is no functional change to the current behavior, only compilation
speed is affected. In general computeBlockPressure() could be simplified
if we switch to backward RP tracker, because scheduler sends regions
within a block starting from the last upward. We could use a natural
order of upward tracker to seamlessly change between regions of the same
block, since live reg set of a previous tracked region would become a
live-out of the next region. That however requires fixing upward tracker
to properly account defs and uses of the same instruction as both are
contributing to the current pressure. When we converge on the produced
pressure we should be able to switch between them back and forth. In
addition, backward tracker is less expensive as it uses LIS in recede
less often than forward uses it in advance.
At the moment the worst known case compilation time has improved from 26
minutes to 8.5.

This change introduces new method to estimate register pressure in
GCNScheduler. Standard RPTracker gives huge error due to the following
reasons:
1. It does not account for live-ins or live-outs if value is not used
in the region itself. That creates a huge error in a very common case
if there are a lot of live-thu registers.
2. It does not properly count subregs.
3. It assumes a register used as an input operand can be reused as an
output. This is not always possible by itself, this is not what RA
will finally do in many cases for various reasons not limited to RA's
inability to do so, and this is not so if the value is actually a
live-thu.
In addition we can now see clear separation between live-in pressure
which we cannot change with the scheduling and tentative pressure
which we can change.

This patch reverts region's scheduling to the original untouched state
in case if we have have decreased occupancy.
In addition it switches to use TargetRegisterInfo occupancy callback
for pressure limits instead of gradually increasing limits which were

not need to tolerate worsened scheduling anymore.
