If a function seen at compile time is not necessarily the one linked to
the binary being built, it is illegal to change the actual arguments
passing to it.
e.g.
--------------------------
void foo(int lol) {
// foo() has linkage satisifying isWeakForLinker()
// "lol" is not used at all.
}
void bar(int lo2) {
// xform to foo(undef) is illegal, as compiler dose not know which
// instance of foo() will be linked to the the binary being built.
foo(lol2);
}
-----------------------------
Such functions can be captured by isWeakForLinker(). NOTE that
mayBeOverridden() is insufficient for this purpose as it dosen't include
linkage types like AvailableExternallyLinkage and LinkOnceODRLinkage.
Take link_odr* as an example, it indicates a set of *EQUIVALENT* globals
that can be merged at link-time. However, the semantic of
*EQUIVALENT*-functions includes parameters. Changing parameters breaks
the assumption.
Thank John McCall for help, especially for the explanation of subtle
difference between linkage types.
