Tobias Grosser 64b95123ef Delete trivial PHI nodes (aka stack slot sharing)
During code preperation trivial PHI nodes (mainly introduced by lcssa) are
deleted to decrease the number of introduced allocas (==> dependences). However
simply replacing them by their only incoming value would cause the independent
block pass to introduce new allocas. To prevent this we try to share stack slots
during code preperarion, hence to reuse a already created alloca 'to demote' the
trivial PHI node. This works if we know that the value stored in this alloca
will be the incoming value of the trivial PHI at the end of the predecessor
block of this trivial PHI.

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.
