to find a tiny mouse hole to squeeze through, it struck
me that globals without a name can be considered internal
since they can't be referenced from outside the current
module. This patch makes GlobalOpt give them internal
linkage. Also done for aliases even though they always
have names, since in my opinion anonymous aliases should
be allowed for consistency with global variables and
functions. So if that happens one day, this code is ready!

If non constant local GV named A is used by a constant local GV named B (e.g. llvm.dbg.variable) and B is not used by anyone else then eliminate A as well as B.
In other words, debug info should not interfere in removal of unused GV.

here. Since we only do the transform if there is
one use, strip off any such users in the hope of
making the transform fire more often.

There is now a direct way from value-use-iterator to incoming block in PHINode's API.
This way we avoid the iterator->index->iterator trip, and especially the costly
getOperandNo() invocation. Additionally there is now an assertion that the iterator
really refers to one of the PHI's Uses.

vector and extraneous loop over it, 2) not delete globals used by
phis/selects etc which could actually be useful. This fixes PR3321.
Many thanks to Duncan for narrowing this down.

nodes. This allows it to do fairly general phi insertion if a
load from a pointer global wants to be SRAd but the load is used
by (recursive) phi nodes. This fixes a pessimization on ppc
introduced by Load PRE.

This sets the stage
- to implement function notes as function attributes and
- to distinguish between function attributes and return value attributes.
This requires corresponding changes in llvm-gcc and clang.

1. There is now a "PAListPtr" class, which is a smart pointer around
the underlying uniqued parameter attribute list object, and manages
its refcount. It is now impossible to mess up the refcount.
2. PAListPtr is now the main interface to the underlying object, and
the underlying object is now completely opaque.
3. Implementation details like SmallVector and FoldingSet are now no
longer part of the interface.
4. You can create a PAListPtr with an arbitrary sequence of
ParamAttrsWithIndex's, no need to make a SmallVector of a specific
size (you can just use an array or scalar or vector if you wish).
5. All the client code that had to check for a null pointer before
dereferencing the pointer is simplified to just access the
PAListPtr directly.
6. The interfaces for adding attrs to a list and removing them is a
bit simpler.
Phase #2 will rename some stuff (e.g. PAListPtr) and do other less
invasive changes.
