Description Filip Pizlo 2012-10-18 12:03:52 PDT 
Currently armv7.rb contains loads of useful lowering phases for transforming programs in the offlineasm language into a form more amenable to code generation on ARM.  But in fact, most of these phases are generally useful for any RISC target, like MIPS, for example.  We should take those things in armv7.rb that are more broadly useful and factor them out into a separate file so that future LLInt ports don't have to copy-paste code.
