I was going to try to re-run the whole jumpthreading pass after latesimplifycfg to see if it would help, but I don't know if it is a good place because LSR that runs after, will not have the loop in canonical form and loopsimplify will again turn it into irreducible loop. Another place I was thinking was to try before CGP.


If it'll work right before CGP, that's probably best. That way targets can run IR-level passes that want to look at loops before that.
