Wrap MVT::ValueType in a struct to get type safety
and better control the abstraction. Rename the type to MVT. To update out-of-tree patches, the main thing to do is to rename MVT::ValueType to MVT, and rewrite expressions like MVT::getSizeInBits(VT) in the form VT.getSizeInBits(). Use VT.getSimpleVT() to extract a MVT::SimpleValueType for use in switch statements (you will get an assert failure if VT is an extended value type - these shouldn't exist after type legalization). This results in a small speedup of codegen and no new testsuite failures (x86-64 linux). git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@52044 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
