This appears to be completely avoidable in nearly all of the situations, since the result of the dyn_cast<>() is used primarily to invoke the getOpcode() method.  In a few places, it's used to call a method in the User class.  Perhaps the dyn_cast to Operator could be replaced by one to User, avoiding any usage of an instance of Operator.
