Loop Vectorizer
---------------
We've continued the work on the loop vectorizer. The loop vectorizer now has the following features:
# Loops with unknown trip count.
# Runtime checks of pointers
# Reductions, Inductions
# If Conversion
# Pointer induction variables
# Reverse iterators
# Vectorization of mixed types
# Vectorization of function calls
# Partial unrolling during vectorization
We've also improved the X86 and ARM cost model.
