//
// This pass performs several transformations to transform natural loops into a
// simpler form, which makes subsequent analyses and transformations simpler and
// more effective.
//
// Loop pre-header insertion guarantees that there is a single, non-critical
// entry edge from outside of the loop to the loop header. This simplifies a
// number of analyses and transformations, such as LICM.
//
// Loop exit-block insertion guarantees that all exit blocks from the loop
// (blocks which are outside of the loop that have predecessors inside of the
// loop) only have predecessors from inside of the loop (and are thus dominated
// by the loop header). This simplifies transformations such as store-sinking
// that are built into LICM.
//
// This pass also guarantees that loops will have exactly one backedge.
//
// Indirectbr instructions introduce several complications. If the loop
// contains or is entered by an indirectbr instruction, it may not be possible
// to transform the loop and make these guarantees. Client code should check
// that these conditions are true before relying on them.
//
// Note that the simplifycfg pass will clean up blocks which are split out but
// end up being unnecessary, so usage of this pass should not pessimize
// generated code.
//
// This pass obviously modifies the CFG, but updates loop information and
// dominator information.
