view. NFCI
Before this patch, the "BackendStatistics" view was responsible for printing the
register file usage (as well as many other statistics).
Now users can enable register file usage statistics using the command line flag
`-register-file-stats`. By default, the tool doesn't print register file
statistics.

Also use llvm::DenseMap for Histograms (instead of std::map).

scheduling model for llvm-mca
This patch allows the description of register files in processor scheduling
models. This addresses PR36662.
A new tablegen class named 'RegisterFile' has been added to TargetSchedule.td.
Targets can optionally describe register files for their processors using that
class. In particular, class RegisterFile allows to specify:
- The total number of physical registers.
- Which target registers are accessible through the register file.
- The cost of allocating a register at register renaming stage.
Example (from this patch - see file X86/X86ScheduleBtVer2.td)
def FpuPRF : RegisterFile<72, [VR64, VR128, VR256], [1, 1, 2]>
Here, FpuPRF describes a register file for MMX/XMM/YMM registers. On Jaguar
(btver2), a YMM register definition consumes 2 physical registers, while MMX/XMM
register definitions only cost 1 physical register.
The syntax allows to specify an empty set of register classes. An empty set of
register classes means: this register file models all the registers specified by
the Target. For each register class, users can specify an optional register
cost. By default, register costs default to 1. A value of 0 for the number of
physical registers means: "this register file has an unbounded number of
physical registers".
This patch is structured in two parts.
* Part 1 - MC/Tablegen *
A first part adds the tablegen definition of RegisterFile, and teaches the
SubtargetEmitter how to emit information related to register files.
Information about register files is accessible through an instance of
MCExtraProcessorInfo.
The idea behind this design is to logically partition the processor description
which is only used by external tools (like llvm-mca) from the processor
information used by the llvm machine schedulers.
I think that this design would make easier for targets to get rid of the extra
processor information if they don't want it.
* Part 2 - llvm-mca related *
The second part of this patch is related to changes to llvm-mca.
The main differences are:
1) class RegisterFile now needs to take into account the "cost of a register"
when allocating physical registers at register renaming stage.
2) Point 1. triggered a minor refactoring which lef to the removal of the
"maximum 32 register files" restriction.
3) The BackendStatistics view has been updated so that we can print out extra
details related to each register file implemented by the processor.
The effect of point 3. is also visible in tests register-files-[1..5].s.

BackendStatistics view.
With this patch, the "instruction dispatched" event now provides information
related to the number of microarchitectural registers used in each register
file. Similarly, the "instruction retired" event is now able to tell how may
registers are freed in each register file.
Currently, the BackendStatistics view is the only consumer of register
usage/pressure information. BackendStatistics uses that info to print out a few
general statistics (i.e. max number of mappings used; total mapping created).
Before this patch, the BackendStatistics was forced to query the Backend to
obtain the register pressure information.
This helps removes that dependency. Now views are completely independent from
the Backend. As a consequence, it should be easier to address PR36663 and
further modularize the pipeline.
Added a couple of test cases in the BtVer2 specific directory.

BackendStatistics view.
This patch introduces two new callbacks in the event listener interface to
handle the "buffered resource reserved" event and the "buffered resource
released" event. Every time a buffered resource is used, an event is generated.
Before this patch, the Scheduler (with the help of the ResourceManager) was
responsible for tracking the scheduler's queue usage. However, that design
forced the Scheduler to 'publish' scheduler's queue pressure information through
the Backend interface.
The goal of this patch is to break the dependency between the BackendStatistics
view, and the Backend. Now the Scheduler knows how to notify "buffer
reserved/released" events. The scheduler's queue usage analysis has been moved
to the BackendStatistics.

This patch introduces a new class named HWStallEvent (see HWEventListener.h),
and updates the event listener interface. A HWStallEvent represents a pipeline
stall caused by the lack of hardware resources. Similarly to HWInstructionEvent,
the event type is an unsigned, and the exact meaning depends on the subtarget.
At the moment, HWStallEvent supports a few generic dispatch events.
The main goals of this patch is to remove the logic that counts dispatch stalls
from the DispatchUnit to the BackendStatistics view.
Previously, DispatchUnit was responsible for counting and classifying dispatch
stall events. With this patch, we delegate the task of counting and classifying
stall events to the listeners (i.e. in our case, it is view
"BackendStatistics"). So, the DispatchUnit doesn't have to do extra
(unnecessary) bookkeeping.
This patch also helps futher simplifying the Backend interface. Now class
BackendStatistics no longer has to query the Backend interface to obtain the
number of dispatch stalls. As a consequence, we can get rid of all the
'getNumXXX()' methods from class Backend.
The long term goal is to remove all the remaining dependencies between the
Backend and the BackendStatistics interface.

This allows the customization of the performance report.
Users can specify their own custom sequence of views.
Each view contributes a portion of the performance report generated by the
BackendPrinter.
Internally, class BackendPrinter keeps a sequence of views; views are printed
out in sequence when method 'printReport()' is called.
This patch addresses one of the two review comments from Clement in D43951.

llvm-mca is an LLVM based performance analysis tool that can be used to
statically measure the performance of code, and to help triage potential
problems with target scheduling models.
llvm-mca uses information which is already available in LLVM (e.g. scheduling
models) to statically measure the performance of machine code in a specific cpu.
Performance is measured in terms of throughput as well as processor resource
consumption. The tool currently works for processors with an out-of-order
backend, for which there is a scheduling model available in LLVM.
The main goal of this tool is not just to predict the performance of the code
when run on the target, but also help with diagnosing potential performance
issues.
Given an assembly code sequence, llvm-mca estimates the IPC (instructions per
cycle), as well as hardware resources pressure. The analysis and reporting style
were mostly inspired by the IACA tool from Intel.
