As part of making ScalarEvolution's handling of pointers consistent, we
want to forbid multiplying a pointer by -1 (or any other value). This
means we can't blindly subtract pointers.
There are a few ways we could deal with this:
1. We could completely forbid subtracting pointers in getMinusSCEV()
2. We could forbid subracting pointers with different pointer bases
(this patch).
3. We could try to ptrtoint pointer operands.
The option in this patch is more friendly to non-integral pointers: code
that works with normal pointers will also work with non-integral
pointers. And it seems like there are very few places that actually
benefit from the third option.
As a minimal patch, the ScalarEvolution implementation of getMinusSCEV
still ends up subtracting pointers if they have the same base. This
should eliminate the shared pointer base, but eventually we'll need to
rewrite it to avoid negating the pointer base. I plan to do this as a
separate step to allow measuring the compile-time impact.
This doesn't cause obvious functional changes in most cases; the one
case that is significantly affected is ICmpZero handling in LSR (which
is the source of almost all the test changes). The resulting changes
seem okay to me, but suggestions welcome. As an alternative, I tried
explicitly ptrtoint'ing the operands, but the result doesn't seem
obviously better.
I deleted the test lsr-undef-in-binop.ll becuase I couldn't figure out
how to repair it to test what it was actually trying to test.
Recommitting with fix to MemoryDepChecker::isDependent.

Currently the SCEVExpander tries to re-use existing casts, even if they
are not exactly at the insertion point it was asked to create the cast.
To do so in some case, it creates a new cast at the insertion point and
updates all users to use the new cast.
This behavior is problematic, because it changes the IR outside of the
instructions created during the expansion. Therefore we cannot
completely undo all changes made during expansion.
This re-use should be only an extra optimization, so only using the new
cast in the expanded instructions should not be a correctness issue.
There are many cases equivalent instructions are created during
expansion.
This patch also adjusts findInsertPointAfter to skip instructions
inserted during expansion. This enables re-using existing casts without
the renaming any uses, by picking a better insertion point.

The test is quite frafile, as the check lines match IR numbers and it is
not obvious why only a very small subset is checked.
Re-generate check lines, so further changes are more obvious.
As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.

We try to hoist the insertion point as high as possible to encourage
sharing. However, we must be careful not to hoist into a catchswitch as
it is both an EHPad and a terminator.
