11 // virtual register computed by an Instruction and replaces it with a slot in
12 // the stack frame, allocated via alloca. It returns the pointer to the
13 // AllocaInst inserted. After this function is called on an instruction, we are
14 // guaranteed that the only user of the instruction is a store that is
15 // immediately after it.
