As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.
llvm-svn: 358546
In addition to finding dead uses of instructions, also find dead uses
of function arguments, and replace them with zero as well.
I'm changing the way the known bits are computed here to remove the
coupling between the transfer function and the algorithm. It previously
relied on the first op being visited first and computing known bits --
unless the first op is not an instruction, in which case they're computed
on the second op. I could have adjusted this to check for "instruction
or argument", but I think it's better to avoid the repeated calculation
with an explicit flag.

This (mostly) fixes https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39771.
BDCE currently detects instructions that don't have any demanded bits
and replaces their uses with zero. However, if an instruction has
multiple uses, then some of the uses may be dead (have no demanded bits)
even though the instruction itself is still live. This patch extends
DemandedBits/BDCE to detect such uses and replace them with zero.
While this will not immediately render any instructions dead, it may
lead to simplifications (in the motivating case, by converting a rotate
into a simple shift), break dependencies, etc.
The implementation tries to strike a balance between analysis power and
complexity/memory usage. Originally I wanted to track demanded bits on
a per-use level, but ultimately we're only really interested in whether
a use is entirely dead or not. I'm using an extra set to track which uses
are dead. However, as initially all uses are dead, I'm not storing uses
those user is also dead. This case is checked separately instead.
The previous attempt to land this lead to miscompiles, because cases
where uses were initially dead but were later found to be live during
further analysis were not always correctly removed from the DeadUses
set. This is fixed now and the added test case demanstrates such an
instance.

The test case has a couple of cases that are not simplified yet. In
particular, we're only looking at uses of instructions right now. I think
it would make sense to also extend this to arguments. Furthermore
DemandedBits doesn't yet know some of the tricks that InstCombine does
for the demanded bits or bitwise or/and/xor in combination with known
bits information.

These involve cases where certain uses are dead by means of having
no demanded bits, even though the used instruction still has demanded
bits when other uses are taken into account. BDCE currently does not
simplify such cases.
