Michael Kruse 0e370cf1a7 Check whether IslAstInfo and DependenceInfo were computed for the same Scop.
Since -polly-codegen reports itself to preserve DependenceInfo and IslAstInfo,
we might get those analysis that were computed by a different ScopInfo for a
different Scop structure. This would be unfortunate because DependenceInfo and
IslAstInfo hold references to resources allocated by
ScopInfo/ScopBuilder/Scop (e.g. isl_id). If -polly-codegen and
DependenceInfo/IslAstInfo do not agree on which Scop to use, unpredictable
things can happen.

When the ScopInfo/Scop object is freed, there is a high probability that the
new ScopInfo/Scop object will be created at the same heap position with the
same address. Comparing whether the Scop or ScopInfo address is the expected
therefore is unreliable.

Instead, we compare the address of the isl_ctx object. Both, DependenceInfo
and IslAstInfo must hold a reference to the isl_ctx object to ensure it is
not freed before the destruction of those analyses which might happen after
the destruction of the Scop/ScopInfo they refer to.  Hence, the isl_ctx
will not be freed and its address not reused as long there is a
DependenceInfo or IslAstInfo around.

This fixes llvm.org/PR34441

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.
