// This pass does the inverse transformation of what LICM does.
// It traverses all of the instructions in the loop's preheader and sinks
// them to the loop body where frequency is lower than the loop's preheader.
// This pass is a reverse-transformation of LICM. It differs from the Sink
// pass in the following ways:
//
// * It only handles sinking of instructions from the loop's preheader to the
// loop's body
// * It uses alias set tracker to get more accurate alias info
// * It uses block frequency info to find the optimal sinking locations
//
// Overall algorithm:
//
// For I in Preheader:
// InsertBBs = BBs that uses I
// For BB in sorted(LoopBBs):
// DomBBs = BBs in InsertBBs that are dominated by BB
// if freq(DomBBs) > freq(BB)
// InsertBBs = UseBBs - DomBBs + BB
// For BB in InsertBBs:
// Insert I at BB's beginning
