[PATCH] [PATCH v4] [PowerPC] Add Hardware Transaction Memory builtins support

[Adhemerval Zanella]

Hi hfinkel, kbarton, nemanjai, wschmidt,

This patch adds Hardware Transaction Memory (HTM) support supported by
ISA 2.07 (POWER8).  The intrinsic support is based on GCC one [1], with
both 'PowerPC HTM Low Level Built-in Functions' and 'PowerPC HTM High
Level Inline Functions' implemented.

Along with builtins a new driver switch is added to enable/disable HTM
instruction support (-mhtm) and a header with common definitions (mostly
to parse the TFHAR register value).  The HTM switch also sets a
preprocessor builtin __HTM__.

The HTM usage requires a recently newer kernel with PPC HTM enabled.
Tested on powerpc64 and powerpc64le.

This is send along a llvm patch to enabled the builtins and option
switch.
