The primary advantage is that loop optimizations will be applied in a
stable order. This helps debugging and unit test creation. It is also
a better overall implementation without pathologically bad performance
on deep functions.

The loop tree is now consistently generated in forward order, but loop
passes are applied in reverse order over the program. If we have a
loop optimization that prefers forward order, that can easily be
achieved by adding a different type of LoopPassManager.

-stable-loops enables a new algorithm for generating the Loop
forest. It differs from the original algorithm in a few respects:
- Not determined by use-list order.
- Initially guarantees RPO order of block and subloops.
- Linear in the number of CFG edges.
- Nonrecursive.
I didn't want to change the LoopInfo API yet, so the block lists are
still inclusive. This seems strange to me, and it means that building
LoopInfo is not strictly linear, but it may not be a problem in
practice. At least the block lists start out in RPO order now. In the
future we may add an attribute or wrapper analysis that allows other
passes to assume RPO order.
The primary motivation of this work was not to optimize LoopInfo, but
to allow reproducing performance issues by decomposing the compilation
stages. I'm often unable to do this with the current LoopInfo, because
the loop tree order determines Loop pass order. Serializing the IR
tends to invert the order, which reverses the optimization order. This
makes it nearly impossible to debug interdependent loop optimizations
such as LSR.
I also believe this will provide more stable performance results across time.

The implementation only needs inclusion from LoopInfo.cpp and
MachineLoopInfo.cpp. Clients of the interface should only include the
interface. This makes the interface readable and speeds up rebuilds
after modifying the implementation.

Take this opportunity to generalize the indirectbr bailout logic for

it to be in VMCore. Also, update it to use isKnownNonZero and
other goodies available in Analysis, making it more precise,
enabling more aggressive optimization.

The loop tree's inclusive block lists are painful and expensive to
update. (I have no idea why they're inclusive). The design was
supposed to handle this case but the implementation missed it and my
unit tests weren't thorough enough.

An algorithm for incrementally updating LoopInfo within a
LoopPassManager. The incremental update should be extremely cheap in
most cases and can be used in places where it's not feasible to
regenerate the entire loop forest.
- "Unloop" is a node in the loop tree whose last backedge has been removed.
- Perform reverse dataflow on the block inside Unloop to propagate the
nearest loop from the block's successors.
- For reducible CFG, each block in unloop is visited exactly
once. This is because unloop no longer has a backedge and blocks
within subloops don't change parents.
- Immediate subloops are summarized by the nearest loop reachable from
their exits or exits within nested subloops.
- At completion the unloop blocks each have a new parent loop, and
each immediate subloop has a new parent.

the latter requirement in the future.

the PassManager code into a regular verifyAnalysis method.
Also, reorganize loop verification. Make the LoopPass infrastructure
call verifyLoop as needed instead of having LoopInfo::verifyAnalysis
check every loop in the function after each looop pass. Add a new

full checking.

that get created during loop unswitching, and fix SplitBlockPredecessors'
LCSSA updating code to create new PHIs instead of trying to just move
existing ones.
Also, optimize Loop::verifyLoop, since it gets called a lot. Use
searches on a sorted list of blocks instead of calling the "contains"
function, as is done in other places in the Loop class, since "contains"
does a linear search. Also, don't call verifyLoop from LoopSimplify or
LCSSA, as the PassManager is already calling verifyLoop as part of
LoopInfo's verifyAnalysis.

isSafeToSpeculativelyExecute. The new method is a bit closer to what
the callers actually care about in that it rejects more things callers
don't want. It also adds more precise handling for integer
division, and unifies code for analyzing the legality of a speculative
load.

works similar to isLoopInvariant, except that it will do trivial
hoisting to try to make the value loop invariant if it isn't already.
This makes it easier for transformation passes to clear trivial
instructions out of the way (the regular LICM pass doesn't run
until relatively late). This is code factored out of LoopSimplify
and other places.

1. Fix the macros in IncludeFile.h to put everything in the llvm namespace
2. Replace the previous explicit mechanism in all the .h and .cpp files
with the macros in IncludeFile.h
This gets us a consistent mechanism throughout LLVM for ensuring linkage.
Next step is to make sure its used in enough places.
