IR: Optimize FunctionType::get to perform one hash lookup instead of two, NFCI

krasimirgg · krasimirgg · commit 09ea204964af · 2018-10-24T15:18:51.000Z
Summary: This function was performing two hash lookups when a new function type was requested: first checking if it exists and second to insert it. This patch updates the function to perform a single hash lookup in this case by updating the value in the hash table in-place in case the function type was not there before.
