     10 //! This pass performs merges of loads and stores on both sides of a
     11 //  diamond (hammock). It hoists the loads and sinks the stores.
     12 //
     13 // The algorithm iteratively hoists two loads to the same address out of a
     14 // diamond (hammock) and merges them into a single load in the header. Similar
     15 // it sinks and merges two stores to the tail block (footer). The algorithm
     16 // iterates over the instructions of one side of the diamond and attempts to
     17 // find a matching load/store on the other side. New tail/footer block may be
     18 // insterted if the tail/footer block has more predecessors (not only the two
     19 // predecessors that are forming the diamond). It hoists / sinks when it thinks
     20 // it safe to do so.  This optimization helps with eg. hiding load latencies,
     21 // triggering if-conversion, and reducing static code size.
     22 //
     23 // NOTE: This code no longer performs load hoisting, it is subsumed by GVNHoist.
