We had stored both f64 values and v2f64, etc. values in the VSX registers. This worked, but was suboptimal because we would always spill 16-byte values even through we almost always had scalar 8-byte values. This resulted in an increase in stack-size use, extra memory bandwidth, etc. To fix this, I've added 64-bit subregisters of the Altivec registers, and combined those with the existing scalar floating-point registers to form a class of VSX scalar floating-point registers. The ABI code has also been enhanced to use this register class and some other necessary improvements have been made. llvm-svn: 205075
