[AArch64] Avoid jump tables in swiftasync clobber-live-reg test. NFC.
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The upstream test relies on jump-tables, which are lowered in
dramatically different ways with later arm64e/ptrauth patches.

Concretely, it's failing for at least two reasons:
- ptrauth removes x16/x17 from tcGPR64 to prevent indirect tail-calls
  from using either register as the callee, conflicting with their usage
  as scratch for the tail-call LR auth checking sequence.  In the
  1/2_available_regs_left tests, this causes the MI scheduler to move
  the load up across some of the inlineasm register clobbers.

- ptrauth adds an x16/x17-using pseudo for jump-table dispatch, which
  looks somewhat different from the regular jump-table dispatch codegen
  by itself, but also prevents compression currently.

They seem like sensible changes.  But they mean the tests aren't really
testing what they're intented to, because there's always an implicit
x16/x17 clobber when using jump-tables.

This updates the test in a way that should work identically regardless
of ptrauth support, with one exception, #1 above, which merely reorders
the load/inlineasm w.r.t. eachother.
I verified the tests still fail the live-reg assertions when
applicable.
