If a conditional branch jumps to the same target, remove the condition
Given that large parts of inst combine is restricted to instructions which have one use, getting rid of a use on the condition can help the effectiveness of the optimizer. Also, it allows the condition to potentially be deleted by instcombine rather than waiting for another pass. I noticed this completely by accident in another test case. It's not anything that actually came from a real workload. p.s. We should probably do the same thing for switch instructions. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D8220 llvm-svn: 231881
