If such a Runtime Predicate of loop Y is false during runtime, we trap and jump back to the start of the folded loop X above. This is fine because we have not executed any side effects of loop X or between loop X and Y:

This happens, for example, if loop X is fully unrolled and folded away in IGVN. A store is then no longer pinned at the folded `CountedLoopNode` but at the last Parse Predicate of loop X. If there are no other CFG nodes between loop X and Y, then the Parser Predicates from loop X end up just above loop Y. All Runtime Predicates created for loop Y with Parse Predicates from loop X will be executed before the pinned store at the last Parse Predicate (i.e. the loop entry).

This, however, does not happen due to a bug: We wrongly group the back to back Loop Limit Check Parse Predicates `107 Parse Predicate` and `51 Parse Predicate` together as single Predicate Block. As a result, we keep `51 Parse Predicate` and `40 Pa...

Looks good to me.
