================
Comment at: clang/lib/AST/ExprConstant.cpp:15908
 
-  llvm::TimeTraceScope TimeScope("isIntegerConstantExpr", [&] {
-    return Loc->printToString(Ctx.getSourceManager());
-  });
+  ExprTimeTraceScope TimeScope(this, Ctx, "isIntegerConstantExpr");

That was my takeaway as well — no obvious lingering bugs. :)


================
Comment at: clang/unittests/Support/TimeProfilerTest.cpp:209
+  setupProfiler();
+  ASSERT_TRUE(compileFromString(Code, "-std=c99", "test.c"));
+  std::string Json = teardownProfiler();

Makes sense — thanks for pointing out the relevant code block in Sema!
