classifying many edges as exiting which were in fact not. These mainly formed edges into sub-loops. It was also not correctly classifying all returning edges out of loops as leaving the loop. With this match most of the loop heuristics are more rational. Several serious regressions on loop-intesive benchmarks like perlbench's loop tests when built with -enable-block-placement are fixed by these updated heuristics. Unfortunately they in turn uncover some other regressions. There are still several improvemenst that should be made to loop heuristics including trip-count, and early back-edge management. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@142917 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

In test/Transforms/LoopStrengthReduce/quadradic-exit-value.ll, the
ScalarEvolution expression for %r is this:
{1,+,3,+,2}<loop>
Outside the loop, this could be evaluated simply as (%n * %n), however
ScalarEvolution currently evaluates it as
(-2 + (2 * (trunc i65 (((zext i64 (-2 + %n) to i65) * (zext i64 (-1 + %n) to i65)) /u 2) to i64)) + (3 * %n))
In addition to being much more complicated, it involves i65 arithmetic,
which is very inefficient when expanded into code.
//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//
In formatValue in test/CodeGen/X86/lsr-delayed-fold.ll,
ScalarEvolution is forming this expression:
((trunc i64 (-1 * %arg5) to i32) + (trunc i64 %arg5 to i32) + (-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32)))
This could be folded to
(-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32))
