Hangs in reassociate

When running "opt -reassociate" on the following program (also included as
attachment) we end up in an infinite loop:

define void @xor_deadloop() {
  br label %endlabel

deadloop:
  %1 = xor i32 %2, 7
  %2 = xor i32 %1, 8
  br label %deadloop

endlabel:
  ret void
}


Problem was detected when doing randomized tests using csmith.
A dead loop similar to the example below was created by -jump-threading.
According to -verify the code is valid. However, the SSA form of the dead loop
is quite interesting.

------------------

One solution (to avoid hanging in Reassociate) is to simply avoid analysis of
dead basic blocks.
For example like this patch:

diff --git a/lib/Transforms/Scalar/Reassociate.cpp
b/lib/Transforms/Scalar/Reassociate.cpp
index 1ec7fce..6fc8dc8 100644
--- a/lib/Transforms/Scalar/Reassociate.cpp
+++ b/lib/Transforms/Scalar/Reassociate.cpp

+    if (!Reachable.count(&*BI)) {
+      DEBUG(dbgs() << "Skipping dead BB:"; BI->dump(););
+      continue;
+    }

     // Optimize every instruction in the basic block.
     for (BasicBlock::iterator II = BI->begin(), IE = BI->end(); II != IE;)
       if (isInstructionTriviallyDead(&*II)) {

I noticed that this problem started to appear after this commit
(so it could be an old problem that appeared again after that revert):

commit a537a2bbfe75a0f15deb93efa5dd9f8ad96971e8
Author: Chad Rosier <mcrosier at codeaurora.org>
Date:   Wed Aug 17 15:54:39 2016 +0000

    Revert "Reassociate: Reprocess RedoInsts after each inst".

    This reverts commit r258830, which introduced a bug described in PR28367.
