cmd/compile: move phi tighten after critical
The phi tighten pass moves rematerializable phi args to the immediate predecessor of the phis. This reduces value lifetimes for regalloc. However, the critical edge removal pass can introduce new blocks, which can change what a block's immediate precedessor is. This can result in tightened phi args being spilled unnecessarily. This change moves the phi tighten pass after the critical edge pass, when the block structure is stable. This improves the code generated for func f(s string) bool { return s == "abcde" } Before this change: "".f STEXT nosplit size=44 args=0x18 locals=0x0 0x0000 00000 (x.go:3) MOVQ "".s+16(SP), AX 0x0005 00005 (x.go:3) CMPQ AX, $5 0x0009 00009 (x.go:3) JNE 40 0x000b 00011 (x.go:3) MOVQ "".s+8(SP), AX 0x0010 00016 (x.go:3) CMPL (AX), $1684234849 0x0016 00022 (x.go:3) JNE 36 0x0018 00024 (x.go:3) CMPB 4(AX), $101 0x001c 00028 (x.go:3) SETEQ AL 0x001f 00031 (x.go:3) MOVB AL, "".~r1+24(SP) 0x0023 00035 (x.go:3) RET 0x0024 00036 (x.go:3) XORL AX, AX 0x0026 00038 (x.go:3) JMP 31 0x0028 00040 (x.go:3) XORL AX, AX 0x002a 00042 (x.go:3) JMP 31 Observe the duplicated blocks at the end.
