Hi,

This patch adds dump printouts for scheduling heuristics in
rank_for_schedule.  Rank_for_schedule is one of the cornerstones of
haifa scheduler, yet its decisions are hard to track and debug.

This patch adds statistical gathering for each branch of
rank_for_schedule, and prints them out according to sched verbosity.
This patch helped me track down several bugs in rank_for_schedule
that result is stupid scheduling decisions.

Bootstrapped and tested on x86_64-linux-gnu.

OK to apply?
Presmably you use the

return increment, retval;

construct to avoid the need for braces?

I can see how it's useful here, but I don't think we've generally used comma 
operators like that and it's a style that I've never liked all that much.

Could you go ahead and split it into two statements and add the necessary 
braces? Approved with that change.

Code in rank_for_schedule is difficult to understand already, so I want to keep amount of 
"extra" code to a minimum.  How about for following instead: "return rfs_result (RFS_xxx, 
<return value>)" ?

Updated patch attached (the rest of the patch is unchanged).
Yea, that seems reasonable.  Good for the trunk.

Thanks,
Jeff
