Details

Summary

IndVarSimplify sometimes makes transforms basing on users that are trivially dead. In particular,
if DCE wasn't run before it, there may be a dead sext/zext in loop that will trigger widening
transforms, however it makes no sense to do it.

This patch teaches IndVarsSimplify ignore the mist trivial cases of that.
