It was disabled because of pathological behaviour of LLVM in some
benchmarks. As of #77680, this has been fixed. The problem there was
that it caused pessimizations in some cases. These have now been fixed
as well.
Before, UnreachablePropagation removed all unreachable branches.
This was a pessimization, as it removed information about
reachability that was used later in the optimization pipeline.
For example, this code
```rust
pub enum Two { A, B }
pub fn identity(x: Two) -> Two {
match x {
Two::A => Two::A,
Two::B => Two::B,
}
}
```
basically has `switchInt() -> [0: 0, 1: 1, otherwise: unreachable]` for the match.
This allows it to be transformed into a simple `x`. If we remove the
unreachable branch, the transformation becomes illegal.
This one is a heavy `'tcx` user.
Two interesting ones:
This one had the `'tcx` declared on the function, despite the trait taking a `'tcx`:
```diff
-impl Visitor<'_> for UsedLocals {
+impl<'tcx> Visitor<'tcx> for UsedLocals {
fn visit_statement(&mut self, statement: &Statement<'tcx>, location: Location) {
```
This one use in-band for one, and underscore for the other:
```diff
-pub fn remove_dead_blocks(tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>, body: &mut Body<'_>) {
+pub fn remove_dead_blocks<'tcx>(tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>, body: &mut Body<'tcx>) {
```
