IBM recently released a new extension to their ISA to support transactional memory (https://www.power.org/documentation/power-isa-transactional-memory/) -- this is different from, and hopefully will have lower overhead compared to, what we have on the BG/Q -- and I'd like to read the documentation and then revisit this patch.

Do you think it would be worth adding that to
<http://llvm.org/docs/CompilerWriterInfo.html#powerpc>
(docs/CompilerWriterInfo.rst)? Also it seems like some of the other
PPC links there are dead, do you know where those documents can still
be found?
