[llvm-dev] How to add new AVR targets?

Hi Dylan,

looks ok now.

One thing:

the ISR is now:

__vector_21:                            ; @__vector_21
__vector_21$local:
sei
push    r0
push    r1
in      r0, 63
push    r0
clr     r0
push    r24
lds     r24, v1
sts     v2, r24
pop     r24
pop     r0
out     63, r0
pop     r1
pop     r0
reti

There are unneccessary push/pops of r1 and r0 too, since the clr is
useless ... GCC had the same problem but they made improvements.

Thanks.
