Post review comments are not cause for grief. Git is flexible and we can augment and change things even after a commit. So no worries :)

I think this is appropriate. We had one APInt DenseMapInfo specialization, now we have two, both using the same technique. If you don't like the default, people can specify a different one, but not making the only used one the default seems unhelpful as people then will reimplement something without knowing there is a version available.
