AutoFDO sometimes has 0 profile in the loop's entry block because the
debug info are lost and unrecoverable.
E.g.
if (a)
if (b)
for () {}
This patch checks if the scale factor is 0, then use the normal scale.
Bootstrapped and passed regression test and performance test.
OK for google-4_8?
Thanks,
Dehao
