I modeled it after AlwaysInlinerPass, since it seems that it was enabled at -O0 
as well. To keep EntryExitInstrumenterPass a function pass and enable it with 
-O0 I think we will need a way to communicate to the pass manager that the pass 
should be run even with optnone, my understanding was that a ModulePass will 
the way to do it. Do we have a way to advertise that a function pass should be 
run regardless of ' optnone' ?

Indeed, I have added to fix a testcase but it does seem unrequired. I will 
remove it.
