[LLVMdev] getSmallConstantTripCount problem

[Michael Ilseman]

Did you run the IndVarSimplify pass? For things like canonical
inductive variables and trip counts, LoopInfo seems to rely on the
loop already being in a canonical form presented by passes such as
IndVarSimplify. You'll also want to make sure not to do something like
StrengthReduction which will invalidate the canonicalization done by
IndVarSimplify until you're done with the LoopInfo analysis.
