Partial fix for bug 22589
Don't spend the entire iteration space in the scalar loop prologue if
computing the trip count overflows. This change also gets rid of the
backedge check in the prologue loop and the extra check for
overflowing trip-count.
Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D7715

git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/branches/release_36@229757 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
Currently LoopUnroll generates a prologue loop before the main loop
body to execute first N%UnrollFactor iterations. Also, this loop is
used if trip-count can overflow - it's determined by a runtime check.
However, we've been mistakenly optimizing this loop to a linear code for
UnrollFactor = 2, not taking into account that it also serves as a safe
version of the loop if its trip-count overflows.

Runtime unrolling will create a prologue to execute the extra
iterations which is can't divided by the unroll factor. It
generates an if-then-else sequence to jump into a factor -1
times unrolled loop body, like
extraiters = tripcount % loopfactor
if (extraiters == 0) jump Loop:
if (extraiters == loopfactor) jump L1
if (extraiters == loopfactor-1) jump L2
...
L1: LoopBody;
L2: LoopBody;
...
if tripcount < loopfactor jump End
Loop:
...
End:
It means if the unroll factor is 4, the loop body will be 7
times unrolled, 3 are in loop prologue, and 4 are in the loop.
This commit is to use a loop to execute the extra iterations
in prologue, like
extraiters = tripcount % loopfactor
if (extraiters == 0) jump Loop:
else jump Prol
Prol: LoopBody;
extraiters -= 1 // Omitted if unroll factor is 2.
if (extraiters != 0) jump Prol: // Omitted if unroll factor is 2.
if (tripcount < loopfactor) jump End
Loop:
...
End:
Then when unroll factor is 4, the loop body will be copied by
only 5 times, 1 in the prologue loop, 4 in the original loop.
And if the unroll factor is 2, new loop won't be created, just
as the original solution.

Patch by Brendon Cahoon!
This extends the existing LoopUnroll and LoopUnrollPass. Brendon
measured no regressions in the llvm test suite with -unroll-runtime
enabled. This implementation works by using the existing loop
unrolling code to unroll the loop by a power-of-two (default 8). It
generates an if-then-else sequence of code prior to the loop to
execute the extra iterations before entering the unrolled loop.
