Diego Novillo 32d9020423 Remove 4,096 loop scale limitation.
Summary:
This is part 1 of fixes to address the problems described in
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=22719.

The restriction to limit loop scales to 4,096 does not really prevent
overflows anymore, as the underlying algorithm has changed and does
not seem to suffer from this problem.

Additionally, artificially restricting loop scales to such a low number
skews frequency information, making loops of equal hotness appear to
have very different hotness properties.

The only loops that are artificially restricted to a scale of 4096 are
infinite loops (those loops with an exit mass of 0). This prevents
infinite loops from skewing the frequencies of other regions in the CFG.

At the end of propagation, frequencies are scaled to values that take no
more than 64 bits to represent. When the range of frequencies to be
represented fits within 61 bits, it pushes up the scaling factor to a
minimum of 8 to better distinguish small frequency values. Otherwise,
small frequency values are all saturated down at 1.

Tested on x86_64.

; This code contains three loops. One is triple-nested, the
; second is double nested and the third is a single loop. At
; runtime, all three loops execute 1,000,000 times each. We use to
; give different frequencies to each of the loops because loop
; scales were limited to no more than 4,096.
;
; This was penalizing the hotness of the second and third loops
; because BFI was reducing the loop scale for for.cond16 and
; for.cond26 to a max of 4,096.
;
; Without this restriction, all loops are now correctly given the same
; frequency values.
