//===- BreakCriticalEdges.cpp - Critical Edge Elimination Pass ------------===//
//
// BreakCriticalEdges pass - Break all of the critical edges in the CFG by
// inserting a dummy basic block.  This pass may be "required" by passes that
// cannot deal with critical edges.  For this usage, the structure type is
// forward declared.  This pass obviously invalidates the CFG, but can update
// forward dominator (set, immediate dominators, and tree) information.
