[LLVMdev] Help with promotion/custom handling of MUL i32 and MUL i64

Hi Dan,

If you set the node's action to "Custom", you should be able to
interfere in the type legalisation phase (before it gets promoted to a
64-bit MUL) by overriding the "ReplaceNodeResults" function.

You could either expand it to a different libcall directly there, or
replace it with a target-specific node (say XXXISD::MUL32) which
claims to take i64 types but you really know is the 32-bit multiply.
Then you'd have to take care of that node elsewhere, of course.

Cheers.

Tim.
