The UnrollMaxUpperBound should be target dependent, since different chips provide different register set which brings different ability of storing more temporary values of a program. So I add a MaxUpperBound value in UnrollingPreference which can be override by targets. All uses of UnrollMaxUpperBound are replaced with UP.MaxUpperBound. 
 
The default value is still 8 and the command line argument '--unroll-max-upperbound' takes final effect if provided.
