[ARM,AArch64] Do not tail-call to an externally-defined function with weak linkage
Externally-defined functions with weak linkage should not be tail-called on ARM or AArch64, as the AAELF spec requires normal calls to undefined weak functions to be replaced with a NOP or jump to the next instruction. The behaviour of branch instructions in this situation (as used for tail calls) is implementation-defined, so we cannot rely on the linker replacing the tail call with a return. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@215890 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
