Balaram Makam b05a55787a [SimplifyCFG] Defer folding unconditional branches to LateSimplifyCFG if it can destroy canonical loop structure.
Summary:
When simplifying unconditional branches from empty blocks, we pre-test if the
BB belongs to a set of loop headers and keep the block to prevent passes from
destroying canonical loop structure. However, the current algorithm fails if
the destination of the branch is a loop header. Especially when such a loop's
latch block is folded into loop header it results in additional backedges and
LoopSimplify turns it into a nested loop which prevent later optimizations
from being applied (e.g., loop  unrolling and loop interleaving).

This patch augments the existing algorithm by further checking if the
destination of the branch belongs to a set of loop headers and defer
eliminating it if yes to LateSimplifyCFG.

; Check that based solely on static profile estimation we don't update the
; branch-weight metadata. Even if the function has an entry frequency, a
; completely cold part of the CFG may be statically estimated.
; For example in the loop below, jump threading would update the weight of the
; loop-exiting branch to 0, drastically inflating the frequency of the loop
; (in the range of billions).
;
; This is the CFG of the loop. There is no run-time profile info for edges
; inside the loop, so branch and block frequencies are estimated as shown:
;
; check_1 (16)
; (8) / |
; eq_1 | (8)
; \ |
; check_2 (16)
; (8) / |
; eq_2 | (8)
; \ |
; check_3 (16)
; (1) / |
; (loop exit) | (15)
; |
; (back edge)
;
; First we thread eq_1->check_2 to check_3. Frequencies are updated to remove
; the frequency of eq_1 from check_2 and then the false edge leaving check_2
; (changed frequencies are highlighted with * *):
;
; check_1 (16)
; (8) / |
; eq_1~ | (8)
; / |
; / check_2 (*8*)
; / (8) / |
; \ eq_2 | (*0*)
; \ \ |
; ` --- check_3 (16)
; (1) / |
; (loop exit) | (15)
; |
; (back edge)
;
; Next we thread eq_1->check_3 and eq_2->check_3 to check_1 as new back edges.
; Frequencies are updated to remove the frequency of eq_1 and eq_3 from
; check_3 and then the false edge leaving check_3 (changed frequencies are
; highlighted with * *):
;
; check_1 (16)
; (8) / |
; eq_1~ | (8)
; / |
; / check_2 (*8*)
; / (8) / |
; /-- eq_2~ | (*0*)
; (back edge) |
; check_3 (*0*)
; (*0*) / |
; (loop exit) | (*0*)
; |
; (back edge)
;
; As a result, the loop exit edge ends up with 0 frequency which in turn makes
; the loop header to have maximum frequency.
