Pete Cooper 0433a64174 Don't create instructions from ConstantExpr's in CFLAliasAnalysis.
The CFLAA code currently calls ConstantExpr::getAsInstruction which creates an instruction from a constant expr.

We then pass that instruction to the InstVisitor to analyze it.

Its not necessary to create these instructions as we can just cast from Constant to Operator in the visitor.  This is how other InstVisitor’s such as SelectionDAGBuilder handle ConstantExpr.

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//

In test/Transforms/LoopStrengthReduce/quadradic-exit-value.ll, the
ScalarEvolution expression for %r is this:

  {1,+,3,+,2}<loop>

Outside the loop, this could be evaluated simply as (%n * %n), however
ScalarEvolution currently evaluates it as

  (-2 + (2 * (trunc i65 (((zext i64 (-2 + %n) to i65) * (zext i64 (-1 + %n) to i65)) /u 2) to i64)) + (3 * %n))

In addition to being much more complicated, it involves i65 arithmetic,
which is very inefficient when expanded into code.

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//

In formatValue in test/CodeGen/X86/lsr-delayed-fold.ll,

ScalarEvolution is forming this expression:

((trunc i64 (-1 * %arg5) to i32) + (trunc i64 %arg5 to i32) + (-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32)))

This could be folded to

(-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32))
