//===-- GCSE.cpp - SSA based Global Common Subexpr Elimination ------------===//
//
// This pass is designed to be a very quick global transformation that
// eliminates global common subexpressions from a function.  It does this by
// using an existing value numbering implementation to identify the common
// subexpressions, eliminating them when possible.
