Hi
This patch cleanups the compute_stack_frame_size, avoids now unnecesary
optimizations that are handled by generic code and adds some of sanity
checking, because this code is easy to break.
The sanity checking spotted two problems. First one of over-active propagation
of alignemnt in expand_inline_function. The stack_alignment_needed is updated
correctly (in fact incorrectly, because the alignment used is BIGGEST_ALIGNMENT
instead of stack_alignment_needed of inlined function, but I will correct this
later) when the stack frame is allocated. This is not always the case, since
function may have only stack frame references that have been optimized out.
Second problem was trigered by following testcase:
x(){int y[]={};}
It forces alignment even when framesize is still 0. My current approach to
avoid this alignment is to check for this speccase in assign_temp and allocate
NULL such arrays at NULL pointer, but I am not sure, if this is OK for
standards.

* function.c (assign_temp): Allocate zero-sized arrays at NULL pointer.
* integrate.c (expand_inline_function): Do not update stack_alignment_needed
* i386.c (compute_frame_size): Remove #ifdef PREFERRED_FRAME_BOUNDARY, add some
sanity checking, remove optimization for function with 0 frame size.
