Well if you expect opt -O0 to not run any pass, then it is fairly easy to achieve in opt: do not invoke the PM builder when OptLevel == 0 :)
(But that defeats the point of -O0 in opt, it actually wouldn't do *anything*)

Note that my motivation to submit this is not that, it is a (admittedly lame) approach to fix a build failure related to us not processing always_inline functions.
