And I do remember a possibly valid use case for emitting a diagnostic. I've seen quite a few tests with names like `test-pr12345.ll`, that were reproducers of compiler crashes, but only contained CHECK-LABELS. I called them dubious tests before (but we don't want to use that term), because these tests are happy when a functions compiles, but don't tests anything whereas they probably should. There are probably a few exceptions where only CHECK-LABELs are okay, so I think a warning along the lines of "you're only checking labels, is that what you really want?" should be fair?
