Owen Anderson f9a26b89f8 What the loop unroller cares about, rather than just not unrolling loops with calls, is
not unrolling loops that contain calls that would be better off getting inlined.  This mostly
comes up when an interleaved devirtualization pass has devirtualized a call which the inliner
will inline on a future pass.  Thus, rather than blocking all loops containing calls, add
a metric for "inline candidate calls" and block loops containing those instead.

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))
