New Revision: 171798

URL: http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?rev=171798&view=rev
Log:
LoopVectorizer: When we vectorizer and widen loops we process many elements at once. This is a good thing, except for
small loops. On small loops post-loop that handles scalars (and runs slower) can take more time to execute than the
rest of the loop. This patch disables widening of loops with a small static trip count.
