The following reverts a hunk from r8-5789-g11ef0b22d68cd1 that made compute_control_dep_chain start from function entry rather than the immediate dominator of the source block of the edge with the undefined value on the PHI node. Reverting at that point does not reveal any testsuite FAIL, in particular the added testcase still passes. The following adjusts this to the other function that computes predicates that hold on the PHI incoming edges with undefined values, predicate::init_from_phi_def, which starts at the immediate dominator of the PHI. That's much less likely to run into the CFG walking limit.
Bootstrapped and tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu. Aldy - you did this change, do you remember anything here? In fact the whole thing that's now called predicate::use_cannot_happen seems to be redundant - the two testcases attributed to its history do not fail when that's disabled, nor did they fail when it was introduced. In principle whats now called predicate::superset_of should cover this (but different implementation limits might apply).
