If loop bound containing calculations like min(a,b), the Scalar
Evolution API getSmallConstantTripMultiple returns 4294967295 "-1"
as the trip multiple. The problem is that, SCEV use -1 * umax to
represent umin. The multiple constant -1 was returned, and the logic
of guarding against huge trip counts was skipped. Because -1 has 32
active bits.
The fix attempt to factor more general cases. First try to get the
greatest power of two divisor of trip count expression. In case
overflow happens, the trip count expression is still divisible by the
greatest power of two divisor returned. Returns 1 if not divisible by 2.
