The C and C++ semantics for compare_exchange require it to return a bool
indicating success. This gets mapped to LLVM IR which follows each cmpxchg with
an icmp of the value loaded against the desired value.
When lowered to ldxr/stxr loops, this extra comparison is redundant: its
results are implicit in the control-flow of the function.
This commit makes two changes: it replaces that icmp with appropriate PHI
nodes, and then makes sure earlyCSE is called after expansion to actually make
use of the opportunities revealed.
I've also added -{arm,aarch64}-enable-atomic-tidy options, so that
existing fragile tests aren't perturbed too much by the change. Many
of them either rely on undef/unreachable too pervasively to be
restored to something well-defined (particularly while making sure
they test the same obscure assert from many years ago), or depend on a
particular CFG shape, which is disrupted by SimplifyCFG.

indirect branches correctly. Under some circumstances, this led to the deletion
of basic blocks that were the destination of indirect branches. In that case it
left indirect branches to nowhere in the code.
This patch replaces, and is more general than either of the previous fixes for
indirect-branch-analysis issues, r181161 and r186461.
For other branches (not indirect) this refactor should have *almost* identical
behavior to the previous version. There are some corner cases where this
refactor is able to analyze blocks that the previous version could not (e.g.
this necessitated the update to thumb2-ifcvt2.ll).
