built on top of #4797

Title and discussion in #4797 are self-explanatory.

This still does not fully fix the problem described in #4797 (but it is yet another incremental improvement). ComputeWriteSet's callingContext is not properly updated during the IR traversal, so ProgramPoints are not correct in many places. This can be fixed by either:

  • Making sure that ComputeWriteSet's callingContext is properly updated and ProgramPoints created correctly everywhere, or
  • Replace all ProgramPoints with loc_t, so that updating the calling context is the responsibility of the Visitor overhead, rather than of ComputeWriteSet.

Neither of these are trivial, but the latter is probably the most invasive option.

Not particularly fond of this API. Seems built just to hide this particular bug.

@mihaibudiu By API do you mean visit_unique_children()? I thought it might be useful for other passes that also do not want to traverse equal child nodes, but if you insist, I can make it local to ComputeWriteSet.

Also, this PR is not "hiding" any bug. It is one of several steps needed to fix the root problem that has been previously discussed.

This is @ChrisDodd's territory, so he should decide the fate of this API
