New Revision: 122739

URL: http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?rev=122739&view=rev
Log:
Further expand what a call graph pass may do.

The rationale is that after analyzing a function in the SCC, we may want to
modify it in a way that requires us to update its uses (f.e. to replace the
call with a constant) or its users (f.e. to call it with fewer arguments).
