Summary:
The old requirement on GEP candidates being in bounds is unnecessary.
For off-bound GEPs, we still have
&B[i * S] = B + (i * S) * e = B + (i * e) * S

Summary:
This patch enhances SLSR to handle another candidate form &B[i * S]. If
we found two candidates
S1: X = &B[i * S]
S2: Y = &B[i' * S]
and S1 dominates S2, we can replace S2 with
Y = &X[(i' - i) * S]
Test Plan:
slsr-gep.ll
X86/no-slsr.ll: verify that we do not run SLSR on GEPs that already fit into
an addressing mode

Summary:
Straight-line strength reduction (SLSR) is implemented in GCC but not yet in
LLVM. It has proven to effectively simplify statements derived from an unrolled
loop, and can potentially benefit many other cases too. For example,
LLVM unrolls
#pragma unroll
foo (int i = 0; i < 3; ++i) {
sum += foo((b + i) * s);
}
into
sum += foo(b * s);
sum += foo((b + 1) * s);
sum += foo((b + 2) * s);
However, no optimizations yet reduce the internal redundancy of the three
expressions:
b * s
(b + 1) * s
(b + 2) * s
With SLSR, LLVM can optimize these three expressions into:
t1 = b * s
t2 = t1 + s
t3 = t2 + s
This commit is only an initial step towards implementing a series of such
optimizations. I will implement more (see TODO in the file commentary) in the
near future. This optimization is enabled for the NVPTX backend for now.
However, I am more than happy to push it to the standard optimization pipeline
after more thorough performance tests.
