Mikael Holmen 8b10680922 [IfConversion] Maintain the CFG when predicating/merging blocks in IfConvert*
Summary:
This fixes PR32721 in IfConvertTriangle and possible similar problems in
IfConvertSimple, IfConvertDiamond and IfConvertForkedDiamond.

In PR32721 we had a triangle

   EBB
   | \
   |  |
   | TBB
   |  /
   FBB

where FBB didn't have any successors at all since it ended with an
unconditional return. Then TBB and FBB were be merged into EBB, but EBB
would still keep its successors, and the use of analyzeBranch and
CorrectExtraCFGEdges wouldn't help to remove them since the return
instruction is not analyzable (at least not on ARM).

The edge updating code and branch probability updating code is now pushed
into MergeBlocks() which allows us to share the same update logic between
more callsites. This lets us remove several dependencies on analyzeBranch
and completely eliminate RemoveExtraEdges.

One thing that showed up with this patch was that IfConversion sometimes
left a successor with 0% probability even if there was no branch or
fallthrough to the successor.

One such example from the test case ifcvt_bad_zero_prob_succ.mir. The
indirect branch tBRIND can only jump to bb.1, but without the patch we
got:

  bb.0:
    successors: %bb.1(0x80000000)

  bb.1:
    successors: %bb.1(0x80000000), %bb.2(0x00000000)
    tBRIND %r1, 1, %cpsr
    B %bb.1

  bb.2:

There is no way to jump from bb.1 to bb2, but still there is a 0% edge
from bb.1 to bb.2.

With the patch applied we instead get the expected:

  bb.0:
    successors: %bb.1(0x80000000)

  bb.1:
    successors: %bb.1(0x80000000)
    tBRIND %r1, 1, %cpsr
    B %bb.1

Since bb.2 had no predecessor at all, it was removed.

Several testcases had to be updated due to this since the removed
successor made the "Branch Probability Basic Block Placement" pass
sometimes place blocks in a different order.

Finally added a couple of new test cases:

* PR32721_ifcvt_triangle_unanalyzable.mir:
  Regression test for the original problem dexcribed in PR 32721.

* ifcvt_triangleWoCvtToNextEdge.mir:
  Regression test for problem that caused a revert of my first attempt
  to solve PR 32721.

* ifcvt_simple_bad_zero_prob_succ.mir:
  Test case showing the problem where a wrong successor with 0% probability
  was previously left.

* ifcvt_[diamond|forked_diamond|simple]_unanalyzable.mir
  Very simple test cases for the simple and (forked) diamond cases
  involving unanalyzable branches that can be nice to have as a base if
  wanting to write more complicated tests.

Kyle Butt 6262ca3448 IfConversion: Rescan diamonds.
The cost of predicating a diamond is only the instructions that are not shared
between the two branches. Additionally If a predicate clobbering instruction
occurs in the shared portion of the branches (e.g. a cond move), it may still
be possible to if convert the sub-cfg. This change handles these two facts by
rescanning the non-shared portion of a diamond sub-cfg to recalculate both the
predication cost and whether both blocks are pred-clobbering.

Fixed 2 bugs before recommitting. Branch instructions must be compared and found
identical before diamond conversion. Also, predicate-clobbering instructions in
the shared prefix disqualifies a potential diamond conversion. Includes tests
for both.

Tim Northover b4ddc0845a ARM & AArch64: make use of common cmpxchg idioms after expansion
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.

Lang Hames 24864fe150 Refactor AnalyzeBranch on ARM. The previous version did not always analyze
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).
