//
// This pass turns chains of integer comparisons into memcmp (the memcmp is
// later typically inlined as a chain of efficient hardware comparisons). This
// typically benefits c++ member or nonmember operator==().
//
// The basic idea is to replace a longer chain of integer comparisons loaded
// from contiguous memory locations into a shorter chain of larger integer
// comparisons. Benefits are double:
//  - There are less jumps, and therefore less opportunities for mispredictions
//    and I-cache misses.
//  - Code size is smaller, both because jumps are removed and because the
//    encoding of a 2*n byte compare is smaller than that of two n-byte
//    compares.
//
// Example:
//
//  struct S {
//    int a;
//    char b;
//    char c;
//    uint16_t d;
//    bool operator==(const S& o) const {
//      return a == o.a && b == o.b && c == o.c && d == o.d;
//    }
//  };
//
//  Is optimized as :
//
//    bool S::operator==(const S& o) const {
//      return memcmp(this, &o, 8) == 0;
//    }
//
//  Which will later be expanded (ExpandMemCmp) as a single 8-bytes icmp.
