[PATCH] return edge in make_eh_edges

[Alexandre Oliva]

The need to initialize edge probabilities has made make_eh_edges
undesirably hard to use.  I suppose we don't want make_eh_edges to
initialize the probability of the newly-added edge itself, so that the
caller takes care of it, but identifying the added edge in need of
adjustments is inefficient and cumbersome.  Change make_eh_edges so
that it returns the added edge.

Regstrapped on x86_64-linux-gnu, and (along with various hardening
patches) on ppc64el-linux-gnu.  Also tested on multiple other targets,
on older versions of GCC.  The returned value is unused in code already
in the compiler.  This is a preparatory patch for uses to be introduced
along with stack scrubbing and control flow redundancy.  Ok to install?


for  gcc/ChangeLog

	* tree-eh.cc (make_eh_edges): Return the new edge.
	* tree-eh.h (make_eh_edges): Likewise.
