ARM 64-bit shift ICE


The patch below fixes gcc.c-torture/execute/builtin-bitops-1.c on ARM/Thumb-2 
targets.

The story here is that ARM doesn't have a 64-bit shift operator, so these get 
decomposed into something like:

low1 = (low >> n)
low1 |= (high << (32 - n)) /**/
low2 = high >> (32 - n)
low_result = (n > 32) ? low2 : low1;

Under some circumstances (typically involving loop bounds) the RTL optimizers 
propagate a constant shift count into this sequence.  Combine then squishes 
the line marked /**/ into a single shift-and-or insn. If n > 32 then the shift 
count will be negative.  Of course this code is dead, but we don't figure that 
out until much later.

In ARM mode we have an "r" alternative so the negative shift count can be 
reloaded into a register. A bit lame, but DCE culls the whole thing before it 
can do any real damage.

In Thumb-2 mode we try and match an "M" constraint (const_int between 0 and 
31) with no other alternatives. This fails, and with nowhere else to go we 
ICE.

The fix is to restrict the predicate for these insns to only accept valid 
const_int shift counts.  This prevents combine forming the shift-or insn, and 
we proceed as before.

Tested on arm-none-eabi
Applied to svn.
