//===- PromoteMemoryToRegister.cpp - Convert memory refs to regs ----------===//
//
// This file is used to promote memory references to be register references.  A
// simple example of the transformation performed by this function is:
//
//        FROM CODE                           TO CODE
//   %X = alloca int, uint 1                 ret int 42
//   store int 42, int *%X
//   %Y = load int* %X
//   ret int %Y
//
// The code is transformed by looping over all of the alloca instruction,
// calculating dominator frontiers, then inserting phi-nodes following the usual
// SSA construction algorithm.  This code does not modify the CFG of the
// function.
//
