c8a27f2a5c Rename Instruction::isIdenticalTo to Instruction::isIdenticalToWhenDefined,
and introduce a new Instruction::isIdenticalTo which tests for full
identity, including the SubclassOptionalData flags. Also, fix the
Instruction::clone implementations to preserve the SubclassOptionalData
flags. Finally, teach several optimizations how to handle
SubclassOptionalData correctly, given these changes.

This fixes the counterintuitive behavior of isIdenticalTo not comparing
the full value, and clone not returning an identical clone, as well as
some subtle bugs that could be caused by these.

Thanks to Nick Lewycky for reporting this, and for an initial patch!

d56fca4708 Fix for PR3016: detect the tricky case, where there are
unfoldable references to a PHI node in the block being folded, and disable
the transformation in that case.  The correct transformation of such PHI
nodes depends on whether BB dominates Succ, and dominance is expensive 
to compute here.  (Alternatively, it's possible to check whether any 
uses are live, but that's also essentially a dominance calculation. 
Another alternative is to use reg2mem, but it probably isn't a good idea to
use that in simplifycfg.)

Also, remove some incorrect code from CanPropagatePredecessorsForPHIs 
which is made unnecessary with this patch: it didn't consider the case 
where a PHI node in BB has multiple uses.

0dd5e1ed39 More migration to raw_ostream, the water has dried up around the iostream hole.
- Some clients which used DOUT have moved to DEBUG. We are deprecating the
   "magic" DOUT behavior which avoided calling printing functions when the
   statement was disabled. In addition to being unnecessary magic, it had the
   downside of leaving code in -Asserts builds, and of hiding potentially
   unnecessary computations.

b8f6a4fc8e Replace isTrapping with a new, similar method called
isSafeToSpeculativelyExecute. The new method is a bit closer to what 
the callers actually care about in that it rejects more things callers 
don't want.  It also adds more precise handling for integer 
division, and unifies code for analyzing the legality of a speculative 
load.

c8ca49659a Teach LoopSimplify how to merge multiple loop exits into a single exit,
when one of them can be converted to a trivial icmp and conditional
branch.

This addresses what is essentially a phase ordering problem.
SimplifyCFG knows how to do this transformation, but it doesn't do so
if the primary block has any instructions in it other than an icmp and
a branch. In the given testcase, the block contains other instructions,
however they are loop-invariant and can be hoisted. SimplifyCFG doesn't
have LoopInfo though, so it can't hoist them. And, it's important that
the blocks be merged before LoopRotation, as it doesn't support
multiple-exit loops.

a5b9645c4b Split the Add, Sub, and Mul instruction opcodes into separate
integer and floating-point opcodes, introducing
FAdd, FSub, and FMul.

For now, the AsmParser, BitcodeReader, and IRBuilder all preserve
backwards compatability, and the Core LLVM APIs preserve backwards
compatibility for IR producers. Most front-ends won't need to change
immediately.

This implements the first step of the plan outlined here:

89553cc42e Do not speculatively execute an instruction by hoisting it to its predecessor BB if any of its operands are defined but not used in BB. The transformation will prevent the operand from being sunk into the use block.

933c743042 For now, avoid generating FP select instructions in order to speculatively execute integer arithmetic instructions. FP selects are more likely to be expensive (even compared to branch on fcmp). This is not a wonderful solution but I rather err on the side of conservative.
This fixes the heapsort performance regressions.

aef2b8198b Restucture a part of the SimplifyCFG pass and include a testcase.
The SimplifyCFG pass looks at basic blocks that contain only phi nodes,
followed by an unconditional branch. In a lot of cases, such a block (BB) can
be merged into their successor (Succ).

This merging is performed by TryToSimplifyUncondBranchFromEmptyBlock. It does
this by taking all phi nodes in the succesor block Succ and expanding them to
include the predecessors of BB. Furthermore, any phi nodes in BB are moved to
Succ and expanded to include the predecessors of Succ as well.

Before attempting this merge, CanPropagatePredecessorsForPHIs checks to see if
all phi nodes can be properly merged. All functional changes are made to
this function, only comments were updated in
TryToSimplifyUncondBranchFromEmptyBlock.

In the original code, CanPropagatePredecessorsForPHIs looks quite convoluted
and more like stack of checks added to handle different kinds of situations
than a comprehensive check. In particular the first check in the function did
some value checking for the case that BB and Succ have a common predecessor,
while the last check in the function simply rejected all cases where BB and
Succ have a common predecessor. The first check was still useful in the case
that BB did not contain any phi nodes at all, though, so it was not completely
useless.

Now, CanPropagatePredecessorsForPHIs is restructured to to look a lot more
similar to the code that actually performs the merge. Both functions now look
at the same phi nodes in about the same order.  Any conflicts (phi nodes with
different values for the same source) that could arise from merging or moving
phi nodes are detected. If no conflicts are found, the merge can happen.

Apart from only restructuring the checks, two main changes in functionality
happened.

Firstly, the old code rejected blocks with common predecessors in most cases.
The new code performs some extra checks so common predecessors can be handled
in a lot of cases. Wherever common predecessors still pose problems, the
blocks are left untouched.

Secondly, the old code rejected the merge when values (phi nodes) from BB were
used in any other place than Succ. However, it does not seem that there is any
situation that would require this check. Even more, this can be proven.

Consider that BB is a block containing of a single phi node "%a" and a branch
to Succ. Now, since the definition of %a will dominate all of its uses, BB
will dominate all blocks that use %a. Furthermore, since the branch from BB to
Succ is unconditional, Succ will also dominate all uses of %a.

Now, assume that one predecessor of Succ is not dominated by BB (and thus not
dominated by Succ). Since at least one use of %a (but in reality all of them)
is reachable from Succ, you could end up at a use of %a without passing
through it's definition in BB (by coming from X through Succ). This is a
contradiction, meaning that our original assumption is wrong. Thus, all
predecessors of Succ must also be dominated by BB (and thus also by Succ).

This means that moving the phi node %a from BB to Succ does not pose any
problems when the two blocks are merged, and any use checks are not needed.
