Subject: [PATCH 1/3] [Uniformity] Fixed control-div early stop

Control-divergence finds joins by propagating labels from the divergent
control branch. The code that checks the early stop for propagation is
not correct in some cases.

This change fixes this issue by stopping at the post-dominator of
the successors of the divergent branch.
