transformed by the inliner into a branch to the enclosing landing pad
(when inlined through an invoke). If not so optimized, it is lowered
DWARF EH preparation into a call to _Unwind_Resume (or _Unwind_SjLj_Resume
as appropriate). Its chief advantage is that it takes both the
exception value and the selector value as arguments, meaning that there
is zero effort in recovering these; however, the frontend is required
to pass these down, which is not actually particularly difficult.
Also document the behavior of landing pads a bit better, and make it
clearer that it's okay that personality functions don't always land at
landing pads. This is just a fact of life. Don't write optimizations that
rely on pushing things over an unwind edge.

and then go kablooie. The problem was that it was tracking the PHI nodes anew
each time into this function. But it didn't need to. And because the recursion
didn't know that a PHINode was visited before, it would go ahead and call
itself.
There is a testcase, but unfortunately it's too big to add. This problem will go
away with the EH rewrite.

must be called in the pass's constructor. This function uses static dependency declarations to recursively initialize
the pass's dependencies.
Clients that only create passes through the createFooPass() APIs will require no changes. Clients that want to use the
CommandLine options for passes will need to manually call the appropriate initialization functions in PassInitialization.h
before parsing commandline arguments.
I have tested this with all standard configurations of clang and llvm-gcc on Darwin. It is possible that there are problems
with the static dependencies that will only be visible with non-standard options. If you encounter any crash in pass
registration/creation, please send the testcase to me directly.

Original commit message:
Use the SSAUpdator to turn calls to eh.exception that are not in a
landing pad into uses of registers rather than loads from a stack
slot. Doesn't touch the 'orrible hack code - Bill needs to persuade
me harder :)

any more. I plan to reimplement alloca promotion using SSAUpdater later.
It looks like Bill's URoR logic really always needs domtree, so the pass
now always asks for domtree info.

instead of PromoteMemToReg. This allows it to stop using DF and DT,
eliminating a computation of DT and DF from clang -O3. Clang is now
down to 2 runs of DomFrontier.

the SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout-C++/except.cpp testcase that broke because
of my change r105902.

clean-up to a catch-all after inlining, take into account that there could be
filter IDs as well. The presence of filters don't mean that the selector catches
anything. It's just metadata information.

the motivation for this patch are laid out in my mail to llvm-commits:
more efficient access to operands and callee, faster callgraph-construction,
smaller compiler binary

transform. I.e., if a clean-up eh.selector call dominates the invoke of an
_Unwind_Resume_or_Rethrow, then we convert the eh.selector into a
catch-all. This patch, however, uses the DominatorTree information, and doesn't
go through the whole rigmarole of starting at the eh.exception call, finding the
corresponding URoR and eh.selector calls, and trying to trace through any number
of instruction types to get to them.

'invoke' instruction. You will get a situation like this:
bb:
%ehptr = eh.exception()
%sel = eh.selector(%ehptr, @per, 0);
...
bb2:
invoke _Unwind_Resume_or_Rethrow(%ehptr) %normal unwind to %lpad
lpad:
...
The unwinder will see the %sel call as a clean-up and, if it doesn't have a
catch further up the call stack, it will skip running it. But there *is* another
catch up the stack -- the catch for the %lpad. However, we can't see that. This
is fixed in code-gen, where we detect this situation, and convert the "clean-up"
selector call into a "catch-all" selector call. This gives us the correct
semantics.
