the argument to be stored to an alloca by tracking uses
of the alloca. This occurs 4 times (out of 7121, 0.05%)
in MultiSource/Applications, so may not be worth it. On
the other hand, it is easy to do and fairly cheap. The
functions it helps are: W_addcom and W_addlit in spiff;
process_args (argv) in d (make_dparser); ercPixConcealIMB
in JM/ldecod.

functions that don't write can't leak a pointer except through
the return value, so a void readonly function is implicitly nocapture.
Test these, and add a test that verifies that f1 calling f2 with an
otherwise dead pointer gets both of them marked nocapture.

to work out (in a very simplistic way) which function
arguments (pointer arguments only) are only dereferenced
and so do not escape. Mark such arguments 'nocapture'.

and select instructions doesn't buy anything here
except extra complexity: the only difference in
the entire testsuite was that a readonly function
became readnone in MiBench/consumer-typeset. Add
a comment about this.

constants, since doing so is irrelevant for aliasing
purposes. While this doesn't increase the total number
of functions marked readonly or readnone in MultiSource/
Applications (3089), it does result in 12 functions being
marked readnone rather than readonly.
Before:
readnone: 820
readonly: 2269
After:
readnone: 832
readonly: 2257

my last patch to this file.
The issue there was that all uses of an IV inside a loop
are actually references to Base[IV*2], and there was one
use outside that was the same but LSR didn't see the base
or the scaling because it didn't recurse into uses outside
the loop; thus, it used base+IV*scale mode inside the loop
instead of pulling base out of the loop. This was extra bad
because register pressure later forced both base and IV into
memory. Doing that recursion, at least enough
to figure out addressing modes, is a good idea in general;
the change in AddUsersIfInteresting does this. However,
there were side effects....
It is also possible for recursing outside the loop to
introduce another IV where there was only 1 before (if
the refs inside are not scaled and the ref outside is).
I don't think this is a common case, but it's in the testsuite.
It is right to be very aggressive about getting rid of
such introduced IVs (CheckForIVReuse and the handling of
nonzero RewriteFactor in StrengthReduceStridedIVUsers).
In the testcase in question the new IV produced this way
has both a nonconstant stride and a nonzero base, neither
of which was handled before. And when inserting
new code that feeds into a PHI, it's right to put such
code at the original location rather than in the PHI's
immediate predecessor(s) when the original location is outside
the loop (a case that couldn't happen before)
(RewriteInstructionToUseNewBase); better to avoid making
multiple copies of it in this case.
Also, the mechanism for keeping SCEV's corresponding to GEP's
no longer works, as the GEP might change after its SCEV
is remembered, invalidating the SCEV, and we might get a bad
SCEV value when looking up the GEP again for a later loop.
This also couldn't happen before, as we weren't recursing
into GEP's outside the loop.
I owe some testcases for this, want to get it in for nightly runs.

- Use SplitBlockPredecessors to factor out common predecessors of the critical edge destination. This is disabled for now due to some regressions.

Everything above is exercised in
CodeGen/X86/lsr-negative-stride.ll (and ifcvt4 in ARM which is
the same IR).

load from a pointer global wants to be SRAd but the load is used
by (recursive) phi nodes. This fixes a pessimization on ppc
introduced by Load PRE.

an IV are outside the loop. Some cosmetics; no
functional change.

more readable, this makes SimplifyCFG a bit better
about cleaning up after itself when it makes conditions unused.

CFG when there is exactly one predecessor where the load is not available.
This is designed to not increase code size but still eliminate partially
redundant loads. This fires 1765 times on 403.gcc even though it doesn't
do critical edge splitting yet (the most common reason for it to fail).

cleans up the generated code a bit. This should have the added benefit of
not randomly renaming functions/globals like my previous patch did. :)
