+/// \brief Move the call to free before a NULL test.
+///
+/// Check if this free is accessed after its argument has been test
+/// against NULL (property 0).
+/// If yes, it is legal to move this call in its predecessor block.
+///
+/// The move is performed only if the block containing the call to free
+/// will be removed, i.e.:
+/// 1. it has only one predecessor P, and P has two successors
+/// 2. it contains the call and an unconditional branch
+/// 3. its successor is the same as its predecessor's successor
+///
+/// The profitability is out-of concern here and this function should
+/// be called only if the caller knows this transformation would be
+/// profitable (e.g., for code size).
