[PATCH] D27874: ilist_iterator: Allow conversion between reverse and forward iterators

[David Blaikie via llvm-commits]

Yeah, I think it might be too subtle to have these reverse iterators behave
differently from other reverse iterators. (I haven't checked the spec in
detail to see if it's only stD::reverse_iterator that has this oddity, or
if all reverse iterators must do so) 'getReverse' seems like a good/clear
solution, if a little odd but at least visibly so.
