'nest' causes a specific register to be grabbed for the
parameter in calls. So removing it doesn't do much :)

OK, if you like.

I think that would only be useful for attributes that can occur at
most once, i.e. sret and nest, and since sret is always on the first
parameter it's not useful for sret. I did consider a
removeAttrEverywhere method, but again it didn't seem generally
useful.

To create a CallSite don't you first need to get your hands on either a CI
or an II? Which means doing the dyn_cast and test anyway, to produce the
CallSite (this is annoying, maybe it should be possible to create one from
an Instruction*). So I don't see that it gains you much. Also, in
ChangeCalleesToFastCall a few lines above I see that a certain "lattner"
didn't consider a CallSite useful for the calling convention case :)
Ciao,
Duncan.
