92c826b1b2 cmd/internal/gc: inline runtime.getg
This more closely restores what the old C runtime did.
(In C, g was an 'extern register' with the same effective
implementation as in this CL.)

On a late 2012 MacBookPro10,2, best of 5 old vs best of 5 new:

75883bae28 cmd/internal/gc: convert yet more Node fields to bools
Convert Embedded, Method, and Colas to bools.

I believe that this is the last of the Node fields
that can be trivially converted to bools.

No functional changes. Passes toolstash -cmp.

92dba0d278 cmd/internal/gc: use hardware instruction for math.Sqrt (amd64/arm)
I first prototyped this change in Sept 2011, and I discarded it
because it made no difference in the obvious benchmark loop.
It still makes no difference in the obvious benchmark loop,
but in a less obvious one, doing some extra computation
around the calls to Sqrt, not making the call does have a
significant effect.

benchmark                 old ns/op     new ns/op     delta
BenchmarkSqrt             4.56          4.57          +0.22%
BenchmarkSqrtIndirect     4.56          4.56          +0.00%
BenchmarkSqrtGo           69.4          69.4          +0.00%
BenchmarkSqrtPrime        4417          3647          -17.43%

This is a warmup for using hardware expansions for some
calls to 1-line assembly routines in the runtime (for example getg).

3ed9e4ca3c cmd/internal/gc: unembed Node.Func
This is a follow-up to CL 7360.

It was generated with eg and gofmt -r.

The only manual changes are the unembedding in syntax.go
and backporting changes from y.go to go.y.

Passes toolstash -cmp.

b09925b31d cmd/5g etc: merge simple case expressions onto fewer lines
The c2go translation left a lot of case expressions on separate lines.
Merge expressions onto single lines subject to these constraints:

* Max 4 clauses, all literals or names
* Don't move expressions with comments

The change was created by running http://play.golang.org/p/yHajs72h-g:

$ mergecase cmd/internal/{ld,gc,obj}/*.go cmd/internal/obj/*/*.go

Passes toolstash -cmp.

4224d81fae cmd/internal/gc: inline x := y.(*T) and x, ok := y.(*T)
These can be implemented with just a compare and a move instruction.
Do so, avoiding the overhead of a call into the runtime.

These assertions are a significant cost in Go code that uses interface{}
as a safe alternative to C's void* (or unsafe.Pointer), such as the
current version of the Go compiler.

*T here includes pointer to T but also any Go type represented as
a single pointer (chan, func, map). It does not include [1]*T or struct{*int}.
That requires more work in other parts of the compiler; there is a TODO.

b115c35ee3 cmd/internal/gc: move cgen, regalloc, et al to portable code
This CL moves the bulk of the code that has been copy-and-pasted
since the initial 386 port back into a shared place, cutting 5 copies to 1.

The motivation here is not cleanup per se but instead to reduce the
cost of introducing changes in shared concepts like regalloc or general
expression evaluation. For example, a change after this one will
implement x.(*T) without a call into the runtime. This CL makes that
followup work 5x easier.

The single copy still has more special cases for architecture details
than I'd like, but having them called out explicitly like this at least
opens the door to generalizing the conditions and smoothing out
the distinctions in the future.

This is a LARGE CL. I started by trying to pull in one function at a time
in a sequence of CLs and it became clear that everything was so
interrelated that it had to be moved as a whole. Apologies for the size.

It is not clear how many more releases this code will matter for;
eventually it will be replaced by Keith's SSA work. But as noted above,
the deduplication was necessary to reduce the cost of working on
the current code while we have it.

Passes tests on amd64, 386, arm, and ppc64le.
Can build arm64 binaries but not tested there.
Being able to build binaries means it is probably very close.
