Instead, the better alternative is to write another pass similar to
LoopUnrollPass.cpp (say LoopPeelPass.cpp) and add new option
-loop-peel. The new pass could use llvm::UnrollLoop() utility
function. Feel free to adjust this utility function if required, but
the core utility function should be used by both passes.
