To elaborate a bit more on that: the only reason IDOM changes is due to 
the way it is computed:
     // rgn = R1722, new_iff = I1854
     Node* ridom = idom(rgn); // ridom = I1522 = IDOM(R1722)
     Node* nrdom = dom_lca(ridom, new_iff); // nrdom = R1784
     set_idom(rgn, nrdom, dom_depth(rgn));

     Node *dom_lca( Node *n1, Node *n2 ) const {
       return find_non_split_ctrl(dom_lca_internal(n1, n2));
     }

     dom_lca_internal(I1522, I1854) = I1522
     find_non_split_ctrl(I1522) = R1784

If IDOM info is recomputed from scratch, IDOM(R1722) remains I1511.

So, eager IDOM normalization (during initial construcion) doesn't help: 
it would lead to consistently hitting the problem in 
PhaseIdealLoop::handle_use()/spinup() when processing dependent RegionNodes.

Best regards,
Vladimir Ivanov
