Don't PRE compares.

CodeGenPrepare sinks compare instructions down to their uses to prevent
live flags and predicate registers across basic blocks.

PRE of a compare instruction prevents that, forcing the i1 compare
result into a general purpose register.  That is usually more expensive
than the redundant compare PRE was trying to eliminate in the first
place.
