+          Implementations should register dependencies between an operand ("X")
+          and an op result/region entry block argument ("Y") if Y may depend
+          on X. Y depends on X if Y and X are the same buffer or if Y is a

+          ```
+          In the above example, %0 may depend on %m1 or %m2 and a correct
+          interface implementation should call:
+          - "registerDependenciesFn(%m1, %r)".
+          - "registerDependenciesFn(%m2, %r)"

+          Return "true" if the given value is a terminal buffer. A buffer value
+          is "terminal" if it cannot be traced back any further in the buffer

+          buffer or because there is not enough information available.

Given this definition, shouldn't this be called `mayBeTerminalBuffer`?
