[llvm-dev] Zen arch in 5.0?

[Das, Dibyendu via llvm-dev]

We are preparing the patches for the scheduler. Regarding register allocator I don’t think there's anything big. Maybe minor tweaks. We need to work a bit more on the TTI and cost model though as there are differences between Intel and AMD on latencies/micro-coding of certain instructions. 

Cant really comment on zen2 specifics at this point.

So there's more patches in the pipeline to land, then?
