[llvm-commits] [llvm] PPC64 TOC support

[Adhemerval Zanella]

Sorry, I end up by made an erroneous patch split. I fixed it and I also
fixed the wrong "@TOC" asm emission. I end up cleaning up the '.td'
encoding changes to avoid messing up with darwin code generation. Now
the logic resides at 'PPCMCCodeEmitter.cpp' with check if the target
is PPC64 with SVR4ABI to emit the TOC relocations.

I split the patch now in this one to add preliminary TOC support and
the other one to add MCJIT support (correct patch in attachments).
