Hi Erik,

The changes look harmless to me, but I'd like to see slightly better tests before this goes in.

cheers,

----------------
If you're checking for the absence of prologue, I'd recommend you used CHECK-NOT, instead of CHECK-NEXT with some instruction, because:

1. It tells us what the test is about, and
2. It's less fragile to codegen changes.

----------------
The more CHECK-NEXT you use, the more fragile the test will be to codegen changes. Though, in these cases, CHECK-DAG will not be as efficient/correct.

Maybe what you should do, since there are no prologues and no stack (I'm assuming), you should create multiple functions, one for each type of parameter, and test it with CHECK-NEXT in an atomic way (for each example, a pair of CHECK + CHECK-NEXT *after* the CHECK-LABEL).
