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