    Avoid useless w/w split · c6faa42b
    Simon Peyton Jones authored and Marge Bot's avatar Marge Bot committed
    This patch is just a tidy-up for the post-strictness-analysis
    worker wrapper split.  Consider
    
       f x = x
    
    Strictnesss analysis does not lead to a w/w split, so the
    obvious thing is to leave it 100% alone.  But actually, because
    the RHS is small, we ended up adding a StableUnfolding for it.
    
    There is some reason to do this if we choose /not/ do to w/w
    on the grounds that the function is small.  See
    Note [Don't w/w inline small non-loop-breaker things]
    
    But there is no reason if we would not have done w/w anyway.
    
    This patch just moves the conditional to later.  Easy.
    This does move some -ddump-simpl printouts around a bit.
    
    I also discovered that the previous code was overwritten an
    InlineCompulsory with InlineStable, which is utterly wrong.  That in
    turn meant that some default methods (marked InlineCompulsory)
    were getting their InlineCompulsory squashed. This patch fixes
    that bug --- but of course that does mean a bit more inlining!
