Wouldn't the generic fix be to call idom() from recompute_dom_depth()?

There are very few calls to recompute_dom_depth() (2 actually: one for
partial peel and one for loop unswitching). The usual practice when
possible is to set the same dom depth for multiple control nodes
(there's not need for a recompute_dom_depth() call then). So I suppose
you could get rid of the extra recompute_dom_depth() calls in the zgc
code.
