[llvm-dev] Accessing Function analyses in a Module pass with the new pass manager

[Arthur Eubanks via llvm-dev]

You shouldn't be running a non-analysis pass from another pass, and the NPM
doesn't allow for that. If you want to do some transforms, use some utility
function. For example, use SplitAllCriticalEdges() instead of running
BreakCriticalEdgesPass.

Does that answer your question? What exactly are you trying to do?
