This implements PGO-driven loop peeling. The basic idea is that when the average dynamic trip-count of a loop is known, based on PGO, to be low, we can expect a performance win by peeling off the first several iterations of that loop. Unlike unrolling based on a known trip count, or a trip count multiple, this doesn't save us the conditional check and branch on each iteration. However, it does allow us to simplify the straight-line code we get (constant-folding, etc.). This is important given that we know that we will usually only hit this code, and not the actual loop. This is currently disabled by default. Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D25963 git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@288274 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
