[Hexagon] Improve scheduling heuristic for large basic blocks
This patch changes the isLatencyBound heuristic to look at the path length based upon the number of packets needed to schedule a basic block. For small basic blocks, the heuristic uses a small threshold for isLatencyBound. For large basic blocks, the heuristic uses a large threshold. The goal is to increase the priority of an instruction in a small basic block that has a large height or depth relative to the code size. For large functions, the height and depth are ignored because it increases the live range of a register and causes more spills. That is, for large functions, it is more important to schedule instructions when available, and attempt to keep the defs and uses closer together. Patch by Brendon Cahoon. llvm-svn: 327987
