[llvm-dev] Handling node through TargetLowering::LowerOperation vs TargetLowering::ReplaceNodeResults

[Przemyslaw Ossowski via llvm-dev]

Thank you Craig for explanation.

Could be the same algorithm used for custom legalizing given node in
LowerOperation and ReplaceNodeResults in case results and inputs of the
node are illegal?
Or actually such situation is impossible and for given node either
LowerOperation or ReplaceNodeResults can be only called?
