- Rename isLegalMemOpType to isSafeMemOpType. "Legal" is a very overloade term.

-With the recent changes to make the implicit def/use set explicit in
-machineinstrs, we should change the target descriptions for 'call' instructions
-so that the .td files don't list all the call-clobbered registers as implicit
-defs.  Instead, these should be added by the code generator (e.g. on the dag).
-
-This has a number of uses:
-
-1. PPC32/64 and X86 32/64 can avoid having multiple copies of call instructions
-   for their different impdef sets.
-2. Targets with multiple calling convs (e.g. x86) which have different clobber
-   sets don't need copies of call instructions.
-3. 'Interprocedural register allocation' can be done to reduce the clobber sets
-   of calls.
