Remove TwoAddressInstructionPass::sink3AddrInstruction.
This function has a bug which will incorrectly reschedule instructions after an INLINEASM_BR (which can branch). (The bug may also allow scheduling past a throwing-CALL, I'm not certain.) I could fix that bug, but, as the removed FIXME notes, it's better to attempt rescheduling before converting to 3-addr form, as that may remove the need to convert in the first place. In fact, the code to do such reordering was added to this pass only a few months later, in 2011, via the addition of the function rescheduleMIBelowKill. That code does not contain the same bug. The removal of the sink3AddrInstruction function is not a no-op: in some cases it would move an instruction post-conversion, when rescheduleMIBelowKill would not move the instruction pre-converison. However, this does not appear to be important: the machine instruction scheduler can reorder the after-conversion instructions, in any case. This patch fixes a kernel panic 4.4 LTS x86_64 Linux kernels, when built with clang after 4b0aa572.
