Actually, I do not think this was due to this PR. The linker failure is in `CBuffer.cpp`, which #196404 does not touch. I think this may have been broken by [`d439fac25c03`](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/d439fac25c03), which added `removeFromUsedLists` to `LLVMFrontendHLSL/CBuffer.cpp` without updating `LLVMFrontendHLSL`'s `LINK_COMPONENTS`.

Adding `LLVMTransformUtils` to `LLVMFrontendHLSL` creates a cycle through `LLVMAnalysis`.  Once that is fixed, this one  can be re-submitted without changes.
