New Revision: 156999

URL: http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?rev=156999&view=rev
Log:
[arcmt] Remove the "it is not safe to remove an unused 'autorelease' message" ARC
migration error.

This is more trouble that it is worth; autoreleasing a value without holding on it
is a valid use-case, we should not "punish" correct code for the minority of
broken/fragile programs that depend on the behavior of  -autorelease.
