This should not affect functionality :)
It basically swaps the order of creation of Scope DIE vs. creation of
children.

In the process, we removed an early exit which only captures some cases of
creating dangling children.
-  // Early return to avoid creating dangling variable|scope DIEs.
-  if (!Scope->getInlinedAt() && DS.isSubprogram() &&
Scope->isAbstractScope() &&
-      !TheCU->getDIE(DS))
-    return NULL;

Creation of unused children then removing them are not efficient and it may
cause problems if a member
of DwarfDebug or CompileUnit holds a reference to the deleted DIE.

I have comments at the header file, I will copy it over to the source file.

I write up isLexicalScopeDIENull from constructLexicalScopeDIE.
constructLexicalScopeDIE returns null
when End is null. Is that what you are asking?
