Updated patch to eliminate redudant compares
Here's a slightly updated patch that allows the compares to be cse'd, but also
doesn't disable the generation of record form instructions (ie, instructions
that also set cr0 implicitly).
I was mistaken in my Comment #5 above. We can sometime handle:
if (*a == *b)
...
else if (*a > *b)
...
and:
switch (*index)
...
depending on whether expand creates the type expression via REG_EXPR or not.
In some cases it does and in others it doesn't. That's not a limitation in
this patch, but in expand. That can can be handled in separate patch.
