I do not have a strong opinion which variant is better : 1) remove 
DW_AT_const_value from DW_TAG_member and put DW_AT_const_value into newly 
created DW_TAG_variable(which does not have a location). or 2) always put  
DW_AT_const_value in DW_TAG_member.

The problem which parallel DWARFLinker met is that DW_TAG_member from one 
compilation unit has DW_AT_const_value while the same DW_TAG_member from 
another compilation unit does not have DW_AT_const_value - 
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/68721#issuecomment-1763409701.

If there is a solution when we could always put DW_AT_const_value into the 
DW_TAG_member (so that DW_TAG_member from different compile units have 
DW_AT_const_value) - then that would be also a good solution(and we would not 
need to create additional variable.)

Both solutions 1) and 2) are good for parallel DWARFLinker if they result in 
equal DWARF in different compile units.
