+/// This pass simplifies certain intrinsic calls when the arguments are uniform.
+/// It's true that this pass has transforms that can lead to a situation where
+/// some instruction whose operand was previously recognized as statically
+/// uniform is later on no longer recognized as statically uniform. However, the
+/// semantics of how programs execute don't (and must not, for this precise
+/// reason) care about static uniformity, they only ever care about dynamic
+/// uniformity. And every instruction that's downstream and cares about dynamic
+/// uniformity must be convergent (and isel will introduce v_readfirstlane for
+/// them if their operands can't be proven statically uniform).

I'd just drop this. It's an extra use list walk
