Subject: only run GlobalDCE at -O3 and run it late instead of early.
X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c92712184faf007afa28503da77e9a962dceb8cc;p=oota-llvm.git

only run GlobalDCE at -O3 and run it late instead of early.
GlobalOpt already deletes trivially dead functions/globals,
so GlobalDCE only adds values for cycles of dead things.
