And I believe [[ https://reviews.llvm.org/D58170 | D58170 ]] can solve most of the problems in JT by making use of the extra information inferred from the fact that JT only submits updates that didn't happen but never submits updates that are already applied.
I hope you are correct @NutshellySima . I never wanted to add the `*relaxed()` methods but there are situations in JumpThreading where we run for a very long time before calling `flush()`. For some `F` I was unable to detect all invalid cases.

It's probably worth testing to do so, although it's been quite a long time for me to recall exactly which testcases caused problems.
