Might be best to keep the fundamental design direction/question here in one thread ( https://reviews.llvm.org/D81144 ) rather than in all of them. Patches are in a series, so if that one ends up going another direction I don't think there's a risk these later ones will be reviewed/approved/committed in spite of that fundamental question.
