As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.
llvm-svn: 358546
This is similar to D18133 where we allowed profile weights on select instructions.
This extends that change to also allow the 'unpredictable' attribute of branches to apply to selects.
A test to check that 'unpredictable' metadata is preserved when cloning instructions was checked in at:

As noted in:
https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=26636
This doesn't accomplish anything on its own. It's the first step towards preserving
and using branch weights with selects.
The next step would be to make sure we're propagating the info in all of the other
places where we create selects (SimplifyCFG, InstCombine, etc). I don't think there's
an easy fix to make this happen; we have to look at each transform individually to
determine how to correctly propagate the weights.
Along with that step, we need to then use the weights when making subsequent transform
decisions such as discussed in http://reviews.llvm.org/D16836.
The inliner test is independent but closely related. It verifies that metadata is
preserved when both branches and selects are cloned.
