/* This module is used to modify loops with a determinable number of
   iterations to use special low-overhead looping instructions.

   It first validates whether the loop is well behaved and has a
   determinable number of iterations (either at compile or run-time).
   It then modifies the loop to use a low-overhead looping pattern as
   follows:

   1. A pseudo register is allocated as the loop iteration counter.

   2. The number of loop iterations is calculated and is stored
      in the loop counter.

   3. At the end of the loop, the jump insn is replaced by the
      doloop_end pattern.  The compare must remain because it might be
      used elsewhere.  If the loop-variable or condition register are
      used elsewhere, they will be eliminated by flow.

   4. An optional doloop_begin pattern is inserted at the top of the
      loop.

   TODO The optimization should only performed when either the biv used for exit
   condition is unused at all except for the exit test, or if we do not have to
   change its value, since otherwise we have to add a new induction variable,
   which usually will not pay up (unless the cost of the doloop pattern is
   somehow extremely lower than the cost of compare & jump, or unless the bct
   register cannot be used for anything else but doloop -- ??? detect these
   cases).  */

	 conditions would pessimize all other code.

	 If the loop is executed only a few times an extra check to
	 restart the loop could use up most of the benefits of using a
