The patch evaluates the expansion cost of exitValue in indVarSimplify pass, and only does the rewriting when the expansion cost is low or loop can be deleted with the rewriting. It provides an option "-replexitval=" to control the default aggressiveness of the exitvalue rewriting. It also fixes some missing cases in SCEVExpander::isHighCostExpansionHelper to enhance the evaluation of SCEV expansion cost.

because of the inside-out run of LoopSimplify in the LoopPassManager and
the fact that LoopSimplify couldn't be "preserved" across two
independent LoopPassManagers.
Anyways, in that case, IndVars wasn't correctly preserving an LCSSA PHI
node because it thought it was rewriting (via SCEV) the incoming value
to a loop invariant value. While it may well be invariant for the
current loop, it may be rewritten in terms of an enclosing loop's
values. This in and of itself is fine, as the LCSSA PHI node in the
enclosing loop for the inner loop value we're rewriting will have its
own LCSSA PHI node if used outside of the enclosing loop. With me so
far?
Well, the current loop and the enclosing loop may share an exiting
block and exit block, and when they do they also share LCSSA PHI nodes.
In this case, its not valid to RAUW through the LCSSA PHI node.
Expected crazy test included.
