The purpose of refactoring is to hide operand roles from SwitchInst user (programmer). If you want to play with operands directly, probably you will need lower level methods than SwitchInst ones (TerminatorInst or may be User). After this patch we can reorganize SwitchInst operands and successors as we want.
What was done:
1. Changed semantics of index inside the getCaseValue method:
getCaseValue(0) means "get first case", not a condition. Use getCondition() if you want to resolve the condition. I propose don't mix SwitchInst case indexing with low level indexing (TI successors indexing, User's operands indexing), since it may be dangerous.
2. By the same reason findCaseValue(ConstantInt*) returns actual number of case value. 0 means first case, not default. If there is no case with given value, ErrorIndex will returned.
3. Added getCaseSuccessor method. I propose to avoid usage of TerminatorInst::getSuccessor if you want to resolve case successor BB. Use getCaseSuccessor instead, since internal SwitchInst organization of operands/successors is hidden and may be changed in any moment.
4. Added resolveSuccessorIndex and resolveCaseIndex. The main purpose of these methods is to see how case successors are really mapped in TerminatorInst.
4.1 "resolveSuccessorIndex" was created if you need to level down from SwitchInst to TerminatorInst. It returns TerminatorInst's successor index for given case successor.
4.2 "resolveCaseIndex" converts low level successors index to case index that curresponds to the given successor.
Note: There are also related compatability fix patches for dragonegg, klee, llvm-gcc-4.0, llvm-gcc-4.2, safecode, clang.

switch (n) {
case 27:
do_something(x);
...
}
the call do_something(x) will be replaced with do_something(27). In
gcc-as-one-big-file this results in the removal of about 500 lines of
bitcode (about 0.02%), so has about 1/10 of the effect of propagating
branch conditions.

branch "br i1 %x, label %if_true, label %if_false" then it replaces
"%x" with "true" in places only reachable via the %if_true arm, and
with "false" in places only reachable via the %if_false arm. Except
that actually it doesn't: if value numbering shows that %y is equal
to %x then, yes, %y will be turned into true/false in this way, but
any occurrences of %x itself are not transformed. Fix this. What's
more, it's often the case that %x is an equality comparison such as
"%x = icmp eq %A, 0", in which case every occurrence of %A that is
only reachable via the %if_true arm can be replaced with 0. Implement
this and a few other variations on this theme. This reduces the number
of lines of LLVM IR in "GCC as one big file" by 0.2%. It has a bigger
impact on Ada code, typically reducing the number of lines of bitcode
by around 0.4% by removing repeated compiler generated checks. Passes
the LLVM nightly testsuite and the Ada ACATS testsuite.

it's OK for the false/true destination to have multiple
predecessors as long as the extra ones are dominated by
the branch destination.

PRE needs the landing pads to have their critical edges split. Doing this for a
landing pad is non-trivial. Abandon the attempt to perform PRE when we come
across a landing pad. (Reviewed by Owen!)

causing it to get into infinite loops when it would widen a

a nice and tidy:
%x1 = load i32* %0, align 4
%1 = icmp eq i32 %x1, 1179403647
br i1 %1, label %if.then, label %if.end
instead of doing lots of loads and branches. May the FreeBSD bootloader
long fit in its allocated space.

wider load would allow elimination of subsequent loads, and when the wider
load is still a native integer type. This eliminates a ton of loads on
various benchmarks involving struct fields, though it is somewhat hobbled
by clang not being very aggressive about field alignment.
This is yet another step along the way towards resolving PR6627.

translation fails. We were bailing out in some cases that would
cause us to miss GVN'ing some non-local cases away.

return it as a clobber. This allows GVN to do smart things.
Enhance GVN to be smart about the case when a small load is clobbered
by a larger overlapping load. In this case, forward the value. This
allows us to compile stuff like this:
int test(void *P) {
int tmp = *(unsigned int*)P;
return tmp+*((unsigned char*)P+1);
}
into:
_test: ## @test
movl (%rdi), %ecx
movzbl %ch, %eax
addl %ecx, %eax
ret
which has one load. We already handled the case where the smaller
load was from a must-aliased base pointer.

Also, update several off GetUnderlyingObject's users
which happen to have a TargetData handy to pass it in.

called from GVN, which claims to preserve these.
I'm skeptical that this is the actual problem behind PR8954, but
this is a stab in the right direction.
