Subject: [PATCH] Properly honor param_max_fsm_thread_path_insns in backwards
 threader

I am trying to make sense of back_threader_profitability::profitable_path_p
and the first thing I notice is that we do

  /* Threading is profitable if the path duplicated is hot but also
     in a case we separate cold path from hot path and permit optimization
     of the hot path later.  Be on the agressive side here. In some testcases,
     as in PR 78407 this leads to noticeable improvements.  */
  if (m_speed_p
      && ((taken_edge && optimize_edge_for_speed_p (taken_edge))
          || contains_hot_bb))
    {
      if (n_insns >= param_max_fsm_thread_path_insns)
        {
          if (dump_file && (dump_flags & TDF_DETAILS))
            fprintf (dump_file, "  FAIL: Jump-thread path not considered: "
                     "the number of instructions on the path "
                     "exceeds PARAM_MAX_FSM_THREAD_PATH_INSNS.\n");
          return false;
        }
...
    }
  else if (!m_speed_p && n_insns > 1)
    {
      if (dump_file && (dump_flags & TDF_DETAILS))
        fprintf (dump_file, "  FAIL: Jump-thread path not considered: "
                 "duplication of %i insns is needed and optimizing for size.\n",
                 n_insns);
      return false;
    }
...
  return true;

thus we apply the n_insns >= param_max_fsm_thread_path_insns only
to "hot paths".  The comment above this isn't entirely clear whether
this is by design ("Be on the aggressive side here ...") but I think
this is a mistake.  In fact the "hot path" check seems entirely
useless since if the path is not hot we simply continue threading it.

This was caused by r12-324-g69e5544210e3c0 and the following simply
reverts the offending change.

	* tree-ssa-threadbackward.cc
	(back_threader_profitability::profitable_path_p): Apply
	size constraints to all paths again.
