This patch adds support for lowering function calls with the
rv_marker attribute. The goal is to expand such calls to the
following sequence of instructions:
BL @fn
mov x29, x29
This sequence of instructions triggers Objective-C runtime optimizations,
hence we want to ensure no instructions get moved in between them.
This patch achieves that by adding a new CALL_RVMARKER ISD node,
which gets turned into the BLR_RVMARKER pseudo, which eventually gets
expanded into the sequence mentioned above. The sequence is then marked
as instruction bundle, to avoid anything being moved in between.
@ahatanak is working on using this attribute in the front- & middle-end.
Together with the front- & middle-end changes, this should address
PR31925 for AArch64.
