Log:
  Pull in r195318 from upstream llvm trunk:
  
    The basic problem is that some mainstream programs cannot deal with the way
    clang optimizes tail calls, as in this example:
  
    int foo(void);
    int bar(void) {
    return foo();
    }
  
    where the call is transformed to:
  
     calll .L0$pb
    .L0$pb:
     popl  %eax
    .Ltmp0:
     addl  $_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_+(.Ltmp0-.L0$pb), %eax
     movl  foo at GOT(%eax), %eax
     popl  %ebp
     jmpl  *%eax                   # TAILCALL
  
    However, the GOT references must all be resolved at dlopen() time, and so this
    approach cannot be used with lazy dynamic linking (e.g. using RTLD_LAZY), which
    usually populates the PLT with stubs that perform the actual resolving.
  
    This patch changes X86TargetLowering::LowerCall() to skip tail call
    optimization, if the called function is a global or external symbol.
  
  This fixes problems with loading X.org driver modules, which could occur
  when X.org was compiled on i386 with tailcall optimization on, for which
  ports r312583 was committed as a workaround.  After this change, the
  workaround can be removed.
  
  MFC after:	3 days
