If the debug info is attached to the call, how can LLVM optimizers (codegen or IR) mess with it (except with that special branch folding optimization you just mentioned)?

Inlining can make that call disappear entirely.

Partial inlining can introduce new calls.

I don't know if there are optimizations like the codegen branch folding in the IR optimizer. I wouldn't surprise me.

Other than that, you should be perfectly safe ;-)
