This patch contains a pass that transforms CBZ/CBNZ/TBZ/TBNZ instructions into a
conditional branch (Bcc), when the NZCV flags can be set for "free". This is
preferred on targets that have more flexibility when scheduling Bcc
instructions as compared to CBZ/CBNZ/TBZ/TBNZ (assuming all other variables are
equal). This can reduce register pressure and is also the default behavior for
GCC.
A few examples:
add w8, w0, w1 -> cmn w0, w1 ; CMN is an alias of ADDS.
cbz w8, .LBB_2 -> b.eq .LBB0_2 ; single def/use of w8 removed.
add w8, w0, w1 -> adds w8, w0, w1 ; w8 has multiple uses.
cbz w8, .LBB1_2 -> b.eq .LBB1_2
sub w8, w0, w1 -> subs w8, w0, w1 ; w8 has multiple uses.
tbz w8, #31, .LBB6_2 -> b.ge .LBB6_2
In looking at all current sub-target machine descriptions, this transformation
appears to be either positive or neutral.
