    Multiple fixes / improvements for LLVM backend · adcb5fb4
    Kavon Farvardin authored and Ben Gamari's avatar Ben Gamari committed
    - Fix for #13904 -- stop "trashing" callee-saved registers, since it is
      not actually doing anything useful.
    
    - Fix for #14251 -- fixes the calling convention for functions passing
      raw SSE-register values by adding padding as needed to get the values
      in the right registers. This problem cropped up when some args were
      unused an dropped from the live list.
    
    - Fixed a typo in 'readnone' attribute
    
    - Added 'lower-expect' pass to level 0 LLVM optimization passes to
      improve block layout in LLVM for stack checks, etc.
    
    Test Plan: `make test WAYS=optllvm` and `make test WAYS=llvm`
