[LLVMdev] Modularizing LICM

[Philip Reames]

I've come across similar use cases recently.  In particular, there are 
some cases where I'd like run HoistRegion on a particular basic block 
after loop unswitching.

I would be open to reviewing patches if you wanted to send them.  I may 
get around to doing so myself eventually, but it's fairly low on my 
priority list.
