10//! This pass performs merges of loads and stores on both sides of a
11//  diamond (hammock). It hoists the loads and sinks the stores.
12//
13// The algorithm iteratively hoists two loads to the same address out of a
14// diamond (hammock) and merges them into a single load in the header. Similar
15// it sinks and merges two stores to the tail block (footer). The algorithm
16// iterates over the instructions of one side of the diamond and attempts to
17// find a matching load/store on the other side. New tail/footer block may be
18// insterted if the tail/footer block has more predecessors (not only the two
19// predecessors that are forming the diamond). It hoists / sinks when it thinks
20// it safe to do so.  This optimization helps with eg. hiding load latencies,
21// triggering if-conversion, and reducing static code size.
22//
23// NOTE: This code no longer performs load hoisting, it is subsumed by GVNHoist.
