This new argument will aid register allocation by indicating how
the temporary will be used in future. If the preference cannot
be satisfied, fall back to the constraints of the current insn.
Short circuit the preference when it cannot be satisfied or if
it does not further constrain the operation.
With an eye toward optimizing function call sequences, optimize
for the preferred_reg set containing a single register.
For the moment, all users pass 0 for preference.

In 6001f7729e12 we partially attempt to address the branch
displacement overflow caused by 15fa08f845.
However, gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/aarch64/advsimd-intrinsics/vqtbX.c
is a testcase that contains a TB so large as to overflow anyway.
The limit here of 8000 ops produces a maximum output TB size of
24112 bytes on a ppc64le host with that test case. This is still
much less than the maximum forward branch distance of 32764 bytes.
Backports commit abebf92597186be2bc48d487235da28b1127860f from qemu
ppc64 uses a BC instruction to call the tcg_out_qemu_ld/st
slow path. BC instruction uses a relative address encoded
on 14 bits.
The slow path functions are added at the end of the generated
instructions buffer, in the reverse order of the callers.
So more we have slow path functions more the distance between
the caller (BC) and the function increases.
This patch changes the behavior to generate the functions in
the same order of the callers.

Backports commit 659ef5cbb893872d25e9d95191cc23b16546c8a1 from qemu
Allocating an arbitrarily-sized array of tbs results in either
(a) a lot of memory wasted or (b) unnecessary flushes of the code
cache when we run out of TB structs in the array.
An obvious solution would be to just malloc a TB struct when needed,
and keep the TB array as an array of pointers (recall that tb_find_pc()
needs the TB array to run in O(log n)).
Perhaps a better solution, which is implemented in this patch, is to
allocate TB's right before the translated code they describe. This
results in some memory waste due to padding to have code and TBs in
separate cache lines--for instance, I measured 4.7% of padding in the
used portion of code_gen_buffer when booting aarch64 Linux on a
host with 64-byte cache lines. However, it can allow for optimizations
in some host architectures, since TCG backends could safely assume that
the TB and the corresponding translated code are very close to each
other in memory. See this message by rth for a detailed explanation:

Instead of exporting goto_ptr directly to TCG frontends, export
tcg_gen_lookup_and_goto_ptr(), which calls goto_ptr with the pointer
returned by the lookup_tb_ptr() helper. This is the only use case
we have for goto_ptr and lookup_tb_ptr, so having this function is
very convenient. Furthermore, it trivially allows us to avoid calling
the lookup helper if goto_ptr is not implemented by the backend.

Backports commit 0fe4fca4e1a5e06a270127dd80bb753d4dda61c6 from qemu
Rather than rely on recursion during the middle of register allocation,
lower indirect registers to loads and stores off the indirect base into
plain temps.
For an x86_64 host, with sufficient registers, this results in identical
code, modulo the actual register assignments.
For an i686 host, with insufficient registers, this means that temps can
be (temporarily) spilled to the stack in order to satisfy an allocation.
This as opposed to the possibility of not being able to spill, to allocate
a register for the indirect base, in order to perform a spill.

The TCG code is quite performance sensitive, but at the same time can
also be quite tricky. That is why asserts that can be enabled with the
--enable-debug-tcg configure option.
This used to work the following way:
| #include "config.h"
|
| ...
|
| #if !defined(CONFIG_DEBUG_TCG) && !defined(NDEBUG)
| /* define it to suppress various consistency checks (faster) */
| #define NDEBUG
| #endif
|
| ...
|
| #include <assert.h>
Since commit 757e725b (tcg: Clean up includes) "config.h" as been
replaced by "qemu/osdep.h" which itself includes <assert.h>. As a
consequence the assertions are always enabled, even when using
--disable-debug-tcg, causing a performance regression, especially on
targets with many registers. For instance on qemu-system-ppc the
speed difference is about 15%.
tcg_debug_assert is controlled directly by CONFIG_DEBUG_TCG and already
uses in some places. This patch replaces all the calls to assert into
calss to tcg_debug_assert.
