The fallout is major in Ada for the return part because the logic completely
overlooks the CALL_EXPR_RETURN_SLOT_OPT flag; when it is set, you don't need to
create a variable in the caller when inlining the function, so this works:
procedure Inline22 (L, U : Integer) is
type Arr is array (Integer range L .. U) of Boolean;
function Get_Zero return Arr;
pragma Inline_Always (Get_Zero);
function Get_Zero return Arr is
begin
return (others => False);
end;
A : Arr;
begin
A := Get_Zero;
end;

eric@fomalhaut:~/install/gcc-11/bin/gcc -c inline22.adb
inline22.adb: In function 'Inline22.Get_Zero':
inline22.adb:10:3: error: function 'Inline22.Get_Zero' can never be inlined
because it has a VLA return argument
