However, in `testIntDiv()`, we split an `If` with `do_split_if()` and need to empty the basic block. We split the store `iFld = sub` up. This includes the `StoreI` as well as the `AddI` which also has the `Region` as current `ctrl` (i.e. returned with `get_ctrl()`).

When finally processing the `DivI` node in the DFS walk of Split-If, we fail with the assertion.

The reason is that we set late ctrl to early ctrl for the `DivL/ModL` node (and thus also set the same late ctrl for the `Add` node) while we do not do that for `DivI/ModI` nodes. It seems that we miss to treat `DivL/ModL` nodes as unpinned here which would allow us to set a later ctrl:

Looks good to me.
