Tobias Grosser c2fd8b411d ScopInfo: Correct schedule construction
For schedule generation we assumed that the reverse post order traversal used by
the domain generation is sufficient, however it is not. Once a loop is
discovered, we have to completely traverse it, before we can generate the
schedule for any block/region that is only reachable through a loop exiting
block.

To this end, we add a "loop stack" that will keep track of loops we
discovered during the traversal but have not yet traversed completely.
We will never visit a basic block (or region) outside the most recent
(thus smallest) loop in the loop stack but instead queue such blocks
(or regions) in a waiting list. If the waiting list is not empty and
(might) contain blocks from the most recent loop in the loop stack the
next block/region to visit is drawn from there, otherwise from the
reverse post order iterator.

We exploit the new property of loops being always completed before additional
loops are processed, by removing the LoopSchedules map and instead keep all
information in LoopStack. This clarifies that we indeed always only keep a
stack of in-process loops, but will never keep incomplete schedules for an
arbitrary set of loops. As a result, we can simplify some of the existing code.

This patch also adds some more documentation about how our schedule construction
works.

This fixes http://llvm.org/PR25879

This patch is an modified version of Johannes Doerfert's initial fix.

Polly - Polyhedral optimizations for LLVM
-----------------------------------------
http://polly.llvm.org/

Polly uses a mathematical representation, the polyhedral model, to represent and
transform loops and other control flow structures. Using an abstract
representation it is possible to reason about transformations in a more general
way and to use highly optimized linear programming libraries to figure out the
optimal loop structure. These transformations can be used to do constant
propagation through arrays, remove dead loop iterations, optimize loops for
cache locality, optimize arrays, apply advanced automatic parallelization, drive
vectorization, or they can be used to do software pipelining.
