Updated patch description.
================
Comment at: lib/Analysis/CFG.cpp:1118
+ Expr::EvalResult Result;
+ if (!Constant->EvaluateAsInt(Result, *Context))
+ return {};

Did you consider using only `EvaluateAsInt()` to begin with? I guess you're trying to make sure that "the user's intent is clear" as other similar warnings do, right? Could you comment on that?
A new function has been created to check the zero-ness of the Expr. Since we know it the Expr comes from tryTransformToIntOrEnumConstant, this function doesn't have to handle the full Expr sub-classes.
