- "Fix typo."
- "Deuglify V8_INLINE and V8_NOINLINE."
- "Don't align size on allocation granularity for unaligned ReserveRegion calls."
Reasons for the revert are:
- Our mjsunit test suite slower by a factor of 5(!) in release mode.
- Flaky cctest/test-alloc/CodeRange on all architectures and platforms.
- Tankage of Sunspider by about 6% overall (unverified).

Remove a lot of platform duplication, and simplify the virtual
memory implementation. Also improve readability by avoiding bool
parameters for executability (use a dedicated Executability type
instead).
Get rid of the Isolate::UncheckedCurrent() call in the platform
code, as part of the Isolate TLS cleanup.
Use a dedicated random number generator for the address
randomization, instead of messing with the per-isolate random
number generators.

The RandomNumberGenerator is a pseudorandom number generator
with 48-bit state. It is properly seeded using either
(1) the --random-seed if specified, or
(2) the entropy_source function if configured, or
(3) /dev/urandom if available, or
(4) falls back to Time and TimeTicks based seeding.
Each Isolate now contains a RandomNumberGenerator, which replaces
the previous private_random_seed.
Every native context still has its own random_seed. But this random
seed is now properly initialized during bootstrapping,
instead of on-demand initialization. This will allow us to cleanup
and speedup the HRandom implementation quite a lot (this is delayed
for a followup CL)!
Also stop messing with the system rand()/random(), which should
not be done from a library anyway! We probably re-seeded the
libc rand()/random() after the application (i.e. Chrome) already
seeded it (with better entropy than what we used).
Another followup CL will replace the use of the per-isolate
random number generator for the address randomization and
thereby get rid of the Isolate::UncheckedCurrent() usage in
the platform code.

Condition variables are synchronization primitives that can be used
to block one or more threads while waiting for condition to become
true.
Right now we have only semaphores, mutexes and atomic operations for
synchronization, which results in quite complex solutions where an
implementation using condition variables and mutexes would be straight
forward.
There's also a performance benefit to condition variables and mutexes
vs semaphores, especially on Windows, where semaphores are kernel
objects, while mutexes are implemented as fast critical sections,
it CAN be beneficial performance-wise to use condition variables
instead of semaphores.

Drop the previous Mutex and ScopedLock classes from platform files.
Add new Mutex, RecursiveMutex and LockGuard classes, which are
designed after their C++11 counterparts, so that at some point
we can simply drop our custom code and switch to the C++11
classes. We distinguish regular and recursive mutexes, as the
latter don't work well with condition variables, which will be
introduced by a followup CL.

Move all of the CPU detection logic to the CPU class, and make

This also fixes the ARM CPU feature detection logic, which was
based on fragile string search in /proc/cpuinfo. Now we use

For that, we maintain an abstract store typing of all variables with LOCAL location (i.e., those that do not escape the function's own scope). We treat assignments as sequential effects that modify this store.
When control flow branches, we have to compute the disjunction of possible effects. To that end, we represent the store as a stack of effect sets, such that we can cheaply push and pop "local" effects when control flow has to branch.
In cases of non-local control transfer from an unknown source, we currently erase all knowledge about the store.
The 'switch' statement is still to come.

Notes:
- For now, just adds the missing type info fields to the AST nodes directly.
I'd like to factor that out more nicely in a follow-up CL.
- All type feedback now is uniformly collected through AST nodes'
RecordTypeFeedback functions. At some point, this logic should be moved
out of ast.cc.
- The typing pass currently simulates the exact same conditions under
which feedback was collected in Hydrogen before. That also should be
made more generic in the future.
- Type information itself is unchanged. Making it more regular is
yet more future work.
Some additional cleanups:
- Lifted out nested class ObjectLiteral::Property, to enable forward declaration.
- Moved around some auxiliary enums.

This patch defines new makefile command line paramaters to better control the
ARM specific options. The new paramters are
* armfpu = vfp, vfpv3-d16, vfpv3, neon.
* armfloatabi = softfp, hard
* armneon = on
* armthumb = on, off
* armtest = on
One existing paratemer has been modified:
* armv7 = true, false
A number of parameters have been deprecated (but are still working):
* hardfp = on, off
* vfp2 = off
* vfp3 = off
the armtest paratmer when set to "on" will lock the options used during compile
time at runtime. This allows for example to easily test the ARMv6 build on an
ARMv7 platform without having to worry about features detected at runtime. When
not specified the compiler default will be used meaning it is not necessary
anymore to specify hardfp=on when natively building on an hardfp platform.
The shell help now prints the target options and features detected.

This is a first step to having profiler sampler implementation in one file with platform capabilities guarded with #ifdef. Otherwise we have very similar implementations scattered over platform-*.cc files which makes it hard to see differences and make changes.
The next steps will be to merge win32, Mac OS X and Cygwin implementations into sampler.cc They suspend profiled thread instead of sending a signal but apart from that the logic is pretty much the same. Then I'm going to move sampler-related code from log.* into sampler.*

- Add --harmony-symbols flag.
- Add Symbol constructor; allow symbols as (unreplaced) return value from constructors.
- Introduce %CreateSymbol and %_IsSymbol natives and respective instructions.
- Extend 'typeof' code generation to handle symbols.
- Extend CompareIC with a UNIQUE_NAMES state that (uniformly) handles internalized strings and symbols.
- Property lookup delegates to SymbolDelegate object for symbols, which only carries the toString method.
- Extend Object.prototype.toString to recognise symbols.
Per the current draft spec, symbols are actually pseudo objects that are frozen with a null prototype and only one property (toString). For simplicity, we do not treat them as proper objects for now, although typeof will return "object". Only property access works as if they were (frozen) objects (via the internal delegate object).

In this design maps contain descriptor arrays, which in turn can contain transition arrays. If transitions are needed when no descriptor array is present, a descriptor array without real descriptors is inserted just so it can point at the transition array.
The transition array does not contain details about the field it transitions to. In order to weed out transitions to FIELDs from CONSTANT_FUNCTION (what used to be MAP_TRANSITION vs CONSTANT_TRANSITION), the transition needs to be followed and the details need to be looked up in the target map. CALLBACKS transitions are still easy to recognize since the transition targets are stored as an AccessorPair containing the maps, rather than the maps directly.
Currently AccessorPairs containing a transition and an accessor are shared between the descriptor array and the transition array. This simplifies lookup since we only have to look in one of both arrays. This will change in subsequent revisions, when descriptor arrays will become shared between multiple maps, since transitions cannot be shared.

This CL:
- Adds a new trait parameter to LazyInstance to let it initialize the instance
without paying the cost of atomic operations (which are expensive on Mac).
This only works for users who don't care about thread-safety and this is now
the default initialization trait used by LazyInstance in v8.
- Reverts the changes that were made in r11010 in isolate.{cc,h}. That lets
Isolate's accessors be as cheap as they were before (but adds one static initializer).
- Adds OS::PostSetup() used to initialize the math functions which depend on CPU features.

2. http://codereview.chromium.org/9455088/ (Remove static initializers in v8):
This CL depends on CL 9447052 (adding CallOnce and LazyInstance).
It is based on a patch sent by Digit.
With this patch applied, we have only one static initializer left (in atomicops_internals_x86_gcc.cc). This static initializer populates a structure used by x86 atomic operations. It seems that we can hardly remove it. If possible, it will be removed in a next CL.
This CL also modifies the presubmit script to check the number of static initializers.
