10 /// Implements an expansion pass to turn `indirectbr` instructions in the IR
11 /// into `switch` instructions. This works by enumerating the basic blocks in
12 /// a dense range of integers, replacing each `blockaddr` constant with the
13 /// corresponding integer constant, and then building a switch that maps from
14 /// the integers to the actual blocks. All of the indirectbr instructions in the
15 /// function are redirected to this common switch.
16 ///
17 /// While this is generically useful if a target is unable to codegen
18 /// `indirectbr` natively, it is primarily useful when there is some desire to
19 /// get the builtin non-jump-table lowering of a switch even when the input
20 /// source contained an explicit indirect branch construct.
21 ///
22 /// Note that it doesn't make any sense to enable this pass unless a target also
23 /// disables jump-table lowering of switches. Doing that is likely to pessimize
24 /// the code.
