New Revision: 147142

URL: http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?rev=147142&view=rev
Log:
Make the unreachable probability much much heavier. The previous
probability wouldn't be considered "hot" in some weird loop structures
or other compounding probability patterns. This makes it much harder to
confuse, but isn't really a principled fix. I'd actually like it if we
could model a zero probability, as it would make this much easier to
reason about. Suggestions for how to do this better are welcome.
