I noted also that createModuleToFunctionPassAdaptor basically creates a adaptor that applies the pass to all function on the module.

I modeled it after AlwaysInlinerPass, since it seems that it was enabled at -O0 as well. To keep EntryExitInstrumenterPass a function pass and enable it with -O0 I think we will need a way to communicate to the pass manager that the pass should be run even with optnone, my understanding was that a ModulePass will the way to do it. Do we have a way to advertise that a function pass should be run regardless of ' optnone' ?

Indeed, I have added to fix a testcase but it does seem unrequired. I will remove it.
