      9 // This file implements a generalized unreachable code checker using a
     10 // path-sensitive analysis. We mark any path visited, and then walk the CFG as a
     11 // post-analysis to determine what was never visited.
     12 //
     13 // A similar flow-sensitive only check exists in Analysis/ReachableCode.cpp
