I've done a first pass over the past 6 months of changes and some notable things stood out:

 * The ARM backend has reworked Set Jump Long Jump EH Lowering.
 * The ARM backend includes improved support for Cortex-M
 * The ARM backend adds parsing and encoding ARM/Thumb/Thumb2 assembly

There are also many many code generation improvements which select more optimal instructions.

Those seemed to be the big items, maybe you know of more and could help Chris with knowing what else is noteworthy for http://llvm.org/docs/ReleaseNotes.html#whatsnew

Cheers,
