Summary:
The getConstraintRegister method is used by semantic checking of
inline assembly statements in order to diagnose conflicts between
clobber list and input/output lists. Currently ARM and AArch64 don't
override getConstraintRegister, so conflicts between registers
assigned to variables in asm labels and clobber lists are not
diagnosed. Such conflicts can cause assertion failures in the back end
and even miscompilations.
This patch implements getConstraintRegister for ARM and AArch64
targets. Since these targets don't have single-register constraints,
the implementation is trivial and just returns the register specified
in an asm label (if any).

variable that has regiser constraint "r" is not 64-bit.
General register operands are output using 64-bit "x" register names, regardless
of the size of the variable, unless the asm operand is prefixed with the "%w"
modifier. This surprises and confuses many users who aren't familiar with
aarch64 inline assembly rules.
With this commit, a note and fixit hint are printed which tell the users that
they need modifier "%w" in order to output a "w" register instead of an "x"
register.

Specifically the part where we removed a warning to be compatible with GCC, which has been widely regarded as a bad idea.
I'm not quite happy with how obtuse this warning is, especially in the fairly common case of a 32-bit integer literal, so I've got another patch awaiting review that adds a fixit to reduce confusion.

This adds Clang support for the ARM64 backend. There are definitely
still some rough edges, so please bring up any issues you see with
this patch.
As with the LLVM commit though, we think it'll be more useful for
merging with AArch64 from within the tree.
