[llvm] r281912 - Only set branch weight during sample pgo annotation when max_weight of the branch is non-zero. Otherwise use default static profile to set branch probability.

Log:
Only set branch weight during sample pgo annotation when max_weight of the branch is non-zero. Otherwise use default static profile to set branch probability.

Summary: It does not make sense to set equal weights for all unkown branches as we have static branch prediction available.
