A few options:

Further up in the same file, the code avoids merging if the instruction is
a call (originally r380995) SimplifyCFG.cpp:1282.

So that's one option - do nothing on calls. But it's probably not
ideal/wrong (since it's not either location)

Beyond that we get to the zero location - but in what scope?
The root scope of the function? (what if these two calls are both within a
single inlined call? That'll punch a hole in the range which isn't entirely
accurate) The nearest common parent scope to the two instructions (assuming
they both have debug locations? If one doesn't have a location, could we
reliably use the other location? Probably not - so if one doesn't have a
location we should use the zero location at the root of the current
function for sure)
Worth finding the common parent scope?
Should this functionality be built into getMergedLocation?
