================
Comment at: llvm/lib/Transforms/IPO/FunctionAttrs.cpp:152-157
+      // A pseudo probe call shouldn't change any function attribute since it
+      // doesn't translate to a real instruction. It comes with a memory access
+      // tag to prevent itself being removed by optimizations and not block
+      // other instructions being optimized.
+      if (isa<PseudoProbeInst>(I))
+        continue;

Right. It is better to be conservative here.
