> Ok, but if the purpose is to prevent predecessor from cycle to be considered non-EH. How about landingpad->A->B->A, where there's no self edge to A, but B would prevent A from being marked EH? The need for self cycle special handling looks fishy.. We either handle all cycles, or don't.. 
https://reviews.llvm.org/D131824 handles landingpad->A->B->A by using a lattice and iterating until no change occurs which handles cycles. Even has a test case to make sure it's done right :)
