Log:
[SimplifyLibCalls] Fix infinite loop with fast-math optimization.

One of the fast-math optimizations is to replace calls to standard double
functions with their float equivalents, e.g. exp -> expf. However, this can
cause infinite loops for the following:

  float expf(float val) { return (float) exp((double) val); }

A similar inline declaration exists in the MinGW-w64 math.h header file which
when compiled with -O2/3 and fast-math generates infinite loops.

So this fix checks that the calling function to the standard double function
that is being replaced does not match the float equivalent.
