some optimization opportunities (in the enclosing supper-expressions).
rule 1. (-0.0 - X ) * Y => -0.0 - (X * Y)
if expression "-0.0 - X" has only one reference.
rule 2. (0.0 - X ) * Y => -0.0 - (X * Y)
if expression "0.0 - X" has only one reference, and
the instruction is marked "noSignedZero".
2. Eliminate negation (The compiler was already able to handle these
opt if the 0.0s are replaced with -0.0.)
rule 3: (0.0 - X) * (0.0 - Y) => X * Y
rule 4: (0.0 - X) * C => X * -C
if the expr is flagged "noSignedZero".
3.
Rule 5: (X*Y) * X => (X*X) * Y
if X!=Y and the expression is flagged with "UnsafeAlgebra".
The purpose of this transformation is two-fold:
a) to form a power expression (of X).
b) potentially shorten the critical path: After transformation, the
latency of the instruction Y is amortized by the expression of X*X,
and therefore Y is in a "less critical" position compared to what it
was before the transformation.
4. Remove the InstCombine code about simplifiying "X * select".
The reasons are following:
a) The "select" is somewhat architecture-dependent, therefore the
higher level optimizers are not able to precisely predict if
the simplification really yields any performance improvement
or not.
b) The "select" operator is bit complicate, and tends to obscure
optimization opportunities. It is btter to keep it as low as
possible in expr tree, and let CodeGen to tackle the optimization.
