Subject: Move createEliminateAvailableExternallyPass earlier in the pass pipeline
X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e53e7dcf09650b09864dc4305fc85be247cc7d14;p=oota-llvm.git

Move createEliminateAvailableExternallyPass earlier in the pass pipeline
to save running many ModulePasses on available external functions that
are thrown away anyhow.
