Hello, For the Glasgow Haskell Compiler's backend, we would like to let LLVM know that certain loads are safe to execute speculatively and hence to hoist out of loops. At the moment, there doesn't seem to be a mechanism for doing so. There seem to be two ways of implementing this: either allow arbitrary instructions to be marked as safe and have Instruction::isSafeToSpeculativelyExecute

Isolate some of the non-VMI timer related changes in Linux. This patch moves the cyc_2_ns conversion code into a common location, eliminating redundant code in hpet and tsc timer implementations, and introduces some macros that may be redefined by the sub-architecture to avoid dependence on APIC routing, CMOS time sync, and testing for broken time hardware (which presumably, does not happen in a
