[RFA:] fix PR55030, wrong code from __builtin_setjmp_receiver


The problem exposed in PR55030 (repeatable on x86_64-linux with -m32 at
r192676) is that the fake-frame-pointer "frame" is replaced with the
actual-frame-pointer "bp" in cse1, around the critical insn in
__builtin_setjmp_receiver that restores their defined offset.  The
patch in PR55030/r192676 removed a clobber of the frame-pointer, and
cse1 felt free to replace the former register with the latter, as in
the following expansion of __builtin_setjmp_receiver (in builtins.c:
expand_builtin_setjmp_receiver) from a reduced test-case, see the PR.
(You might find the setup/restore code having an unexpected order;
there are two __builtin_setjmps in series and the setup of the second
one is storing the wrong value for the frame-pointer.)

The pre-transformation dump in cse1 says:

Before r192676 and after the reversion in r192701, there was/is that
weird extra "(clobber (reg/f:SI 6 bp)" inserted before insn 17.  But
without that, we notice post-cse1-transformation, a change in insn 57:

     (nil))

It seemed wrong for this change to be stopped *only* by that (clobber bp).
Stepping through the code for insn 78 and 57, I was looking for
related special-casing of frame- and other similar registers in cse.c
and was a bit confused when I found none (not counting hash_rtx_cb).
(I admit lack of special-casing is a good sign, though. :)  Then I was
blinded by the obvious; the next insn, insn 17, is a "blockage" insn.

This is a target-specific blockage insn, but with the general form
found in all targets defining it.  The default blockage is an empty
asm-volatile, which is what cse_insn recognized.  The blockage insn is
there to "prevent scheduling" of the critical insns and register
values.  It's almost obvious that an unspec_volatile should have that
effect "too"; at least that's intended by the code in
expand_builtin_setjmp_receiver.  Luckily (or unluckily regarding the
presence of the bug) *this* cse code is not run post-frame-layout
(post-reload-cse does not use this code), or it seems people would
soon notice register values used from the wrong side of the blockage,
considering its critical use at the restore of the stack-pointer.
As mentioned in the previous patch,
<http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2012-10/msg01172.html>, clobbering
the frame-pointer (and then using it) does not seem the logical
alternative to the patch below; the blockage insn should just do its job.

I updated comments and documentation so it's more apparent that
register uses should also not be moved across the blockage; see the
patched comments.

Tested native x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu w./wo. -m32 and before/after
192677.  Ok to commit?

gcc:
	PR middle-end/55030
	* builtins.c (expand_builtin_setjmp_receiver): Update comment
	regarding purpose of blockage.
	* emit-rtl.c [!HAVE_blockage] (gen_blockage): Similarly for
	the head comment.
	* doc/md.texi (blockage): Update similarly.  Change wording to
	require one of two forms, rather than implying a wider choice.
	* cse.c (cse_insn): Where checking for blocking insns, treat
	UNSPEC_VOLATILE as blocking, besides volatile ASM.
