[LAA] Rework and rename stripGetElementPtr (#125315)

The stripGetElementPtr function is mysteriously named, and calls into
another mysterious getGEPInductionOperand which does something
complicated with GEP indices. The real purpose of the badly-named
stripGetElementPtr function is to get a loop-variant GEP index, if there
is one. The getGEPInductionOperand is totally redundant, as stripping
off zeros from the end of GEP indices has no effect on computing the
loop-variant GEP index, as constant zeros are always loop-invariant.
Moreover, the GEP induction operand is simply the first non-zero index
from the end, which stripGetElementPtr returns when it finds that any of
the GEP indices are loop-variant: this is a completely unrelated value
to the GEP index that is loop-variant. The implicit assumption here is
that there is only ever one loop-variant index, and it is the first
non-zero one from the end.

The logic is unnecessarily complicated for what stripGetElementPtr wants
to achieve, and the header comments are confusing as well. Strip
getGEPInductionOperand, rework and rename stripGetElementPtr.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
