[AArch64][BFloat] basic AArch64 bfloat support
Summary: This patch adds the bfloat type to the AArch64 backend: - adds it as part of the FPR16 register class - adds bfloat calling conventions - as f16 is now not the only FPR16 type anymore, we need to constrain a number of instruction patterns using FPR16Op to help out the TableGen type inferrer This patch is part of a series implementing the Bfloat16 extension of the Armv8.6-a architecture, as detailed here: https://community.arm.com/developer/ip-products/processors/b/processors-ip-blog/posts/arm-architecture-developments-armv8-6-a The bfloat type, and its properties are specified in the Arm Architecture Reference Manual: https://developer.arm.com/docs/ddi0487/latest/arm-architecture-reference-manual-armv8-for-armv8-a-architecture-profile Reviewers: t.p.northover, c-rhodes, fpetrogalli, sdesmalen, ostannard, LukeGeeson, ab Reviewed By: fpetrogalli Subscribers: pbarrio, LukeGeeson, kristof.beyls, hiraditya, danielkiss, llvm-commits Tags: #llvm Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D79709
