This is marked done, but I don't see a change or reply for it.

For  my suggestion, that call would remain within `TransformOMPCanonicalLoop` where it is now.

> 2. Return the child loop as representing the OMPCanonicalLoop (i.e. OMPCanonicalLoop wrapper is removed).

For my suggestion, this would not happen.  I think it's normal for a `TransformX` to return the transformed `X` not the transformed child of `X`.  If a caller wants to transform the child, then it should transform the child directly instead.

> 3. Parent loop-associated directive (e.g. workshare) is processed.

It looks to me like step 3 is currently within `TransformOMPExecutableDirective` and starts before the call to `TranformOMPCanonicalLoop` and thus before step 1.  It completes after step 4.  Or am I misunderstanding what you're describing as step 3?

> 4. `ActOnOpenMPCanonicalLoop` adds new OMPCanonicalLoop wrapper for loop nest.

For my suggestion, this would still happen.  However, instead of step 2: within `TransformOMPCanonicalLoop`, you would call `RebuildOMPCanonicalLoop`, which would call `ActOnOpenMPCanonicalLoop` as step 4.  The effect is you moved `ActOnOpenMPCanonicalLoop` from the caller (`TransformOMPExecutableDirective`) to the callee's callee, but the behavior should remain the same.

Flexibility for whom?

A class extending `TreeTransform`?  With my suggestion, it can override `TransformOMPCanonicalLoop` or `RebuildOMPCanonicalLoop`, depending on how much it wants to alter the transformation.

Or a caller of `TransformOMPCanonicalLoop` within `TreeTransform`?  I only see one right now, `TransformOMPExecutableDirective`, and I don't see how it needs the flexibility.  Are there other callers I missed?

Are you trying to create flexibility without requiring deriving from `TreeTransform`?  But, as far as I can tell, you're doing so at the expense of normal `TreeTransform` semantics.  Doesn't seem worth it.

If you see a precedent for your approach elsewhere in `TreeTransform`, please point it out.

Why would you need to?  In the other `TransformX` functions I looked at, the arguments to the `RebuildX` function are transformed, and those are typically just the arguments to the `ActOnX` function.  In other words, you would just transform the loop within your `OMPCanonicalLoop` as you're doing now.
