//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
-With the recent changes to make the implicit def/use set explicit in
-machineinstrs, we should change the target descriptions for 'call' instructions
-so that the .td files don't list all the call-clobbered registers as implicit
-defs. Instead, these should be added by the code generator (e.g. on the dag).
-
-This has a number of uses:
-
-1. PPC32/64 and X86 32/64 can avoid having multiple copies of call instructions
- for their different impdef sets.
-2. Targets with multiple calling convs (e.g. x86) which have different clobber
- sets don't need copies of call instructions.
-3. 'Interprocedural register allocation' can be done to reduce the clobber sets
- of calls.

We should recognized various "overflow detection" idioms and translate them into
llvm.uadd.with.overflow and similar intrinsics. Here is a multiply idiom:
