There were comments explaining why 2 is subtracted:
// When computing the unrolled size, note that the conditional branch on the
// backedge and the comparison feeding it are not replicated like the rest of
// the loop body (which is why 2 is subtracted).
please make sure these are transplanted with the calculation.

----------------
Should we set SetExplicitly = true here? The comments say this is used to indicate a non-heuristically-chosen value. But this is a heuristically-chosen value, it just happens to have been chosen by the backend.
