Problem: Migration to new PM broke flatten attribute.
This is one use case why LLVM should support inlining call-site with alwaysinline. The flatten attribute is nowdays broken, so we should either land patch like this one or remove everything related to flatten attribute from Clang.
Second use case is something like "per call site inlining intrinsics" to control inlining even more; mentioned in

For a default visibility external linkage definition, dso_local is set for ELF
-fno-pic/-fpie and COFF and Mach-O. Since default clang -cc1 for ELF is similar
to -fpic ("PIC Level" is not set), this nuance causes unneeded binary format differences.
To make emitted IR similar, ELF -cc1 -fpic will default to -fno-semantic-interposition,
which sets dso_local for default visibility external linkage definitions.
To make this flip smooth and enable future (dso_local as definition default),
this patch replaces (function) `define ` with `define{{.*}} `,
(variable/constant/alias) `= ` with `={{.*}} `, or inserts appropriate `{{.*}} `.
Summary:
Clang -fpic defaults to -fno-semantic-interposition (GCC -fpic defaults
to -fsemantic-interposition).
Users need to specify -fsemantic-interposition to get semantic
interposition behavior.
Semantic interposition is currently a best-effort feature. There may
still be some cases where it is not handled well.

- CodeGen/flatten.c will fail under new PM becausec the new PM AlwaysInliner
seems to intentionally inline functions but not call sites marked with
alwaysinline (D23299)
- Tests that check remarks happen to check them for the inliner which is not
turned on at O0. These tests just check that remarks work, but we can make
separate tests for the new PM with -O1 so we can turn on the inliner and
check the remarks with minimal changes.

This is a GNU attribute that causes calls within the attributed function
to be inlined where possible. It is implemented by giving such calls the
alwaysinline attribute.
