I did some research on spec2006 about looping.  Nine benchmarks can further remove instructions.  gcc, omnetpp, and perlbench can remove 1000+ instructions.  83.5% MFs across spec2006 only need one iteration, 15.3% MFs need two iterations.  The largest iteration number is five which is needed by 0.03% MFs.

It seems promising to pursue, but I think I will do the looping in the next patch after this one stays in the tree for a while.
