[llvm] r239720 - [MachineSink] Improve runtime performance. NFC.

Hi Arnaud,

The current implementation of the caching mechanism seems confusing to me.
Looking at the comment on the related field seems to imply that the cache is global to the pass.
However, when we look at the implementation, the cache is reset each time we process a new block.

I found that confusing for two reasons:
1. We invalid the cache for apparently no good reason, i.e., why do we assume the list of successors changed when processing a new block?
2. If this cache is only valid for the current process block (and the related traversed blocks), why is this a field global to the structure?

I see two ways of fixing that:
1. Have the map being local to process block function and pass it to the functions that use it.
2. Have the cache being really global and invalid it only when it makes sense.

Also, side remark, for caching/lazy structures, I expect those to be mutable and have the related function being const… My 2c.

Cheers,
-Quentin
