This change is needed to avoid a regression in gcc.dg/ifcvt-3.c
for a later patch.  Without it, we enter CSE with a dead comparison left
by if-conversion and then eliminate the second (live) comparison in
favour of the dead one.  That's functionally correct in itself, but it
meant that we'd combine the subtraction and comparison into a SUBS
before we have a chance to fold away the subtraction.

Tested on aarch64-linux-gnu, aarch64_be-elf and x86_64-linux-gnu.
OK to install?

gcc/
	* ifcvt.c: Include dce.h.
	(if_convert): Call run_fast_dce if the pass changed something.

cfg_cleanup if it does, runs fast-dce after cleaning up the CFG so does
it make sense to do this in the caller instead?  (and after removing the
live problem just in case dce tries to keep that updated?)

Otherwise this is of course ok.

I think that only happens with CLEANUP_CROSSJUMP, which we don't use
here as things stand.  But that could easily change in future, and yeah,
doing it after removing the live problem would be better.

So something like the attached?  (Only lightly tested, but it does
still fix the original problem.)

I don't have any evidence that the post-combine pass needs this,
so I've kept it specific to the main pass this time.

Thanks,
Richard

Yeah, that works, too (I was originally thinking to simply put it after
the cleanup_cfg (0) call ...).

Any reason you use 0x100 instead of 256?

If nobody objects this is OK.

Just trying to set a precedent for future flags. :-)  Beyond 65536 I have
to look it up.
