I believe the caller doesn't actually care if it's fma or fmul/fadd combo. In
this case it should just be replaced with llvm.fmuladd - this works will all
(supported by swr) llvm versions, and you don't need to distinguish in the
caller if the cpu supports fma or not, llvm will automatically emit either fma
or fmul/fadd.
