[LLVMdev] Metadata

[Garrison Venn]

I don't think the lang ref metadata grammar section (http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#metadata) has been fully updated 
with how !dbg metadata is used in http://llvm.org/docs/SourceLevelDebugging.html. At least to me it is not clear. In my
mind I translate the phrase "LLVM IR allows metadata to be attached to instructions " into a grammar depicted in 
SourceLevelDebugging.html. I was going to ask about this, but I'll let you instead. :-)
