tracing-core tests fail on nightly with codegen-units=1 opt-level>0, probably due to LLVM 17

[durin42]

Code

The tracing-core crate, versions 0.1.30 and 0.1.31 (as well as git 941b1591) fails tests:

RUSTFLAGS='-Ccodegen-units=1 -Copt-level=1' cargo +nightly test gives test field::test::value_sets_with_fields_from_other_callsites_are_empty ... FAILED

Version it worked on

Works in beta, and worked in nightly as of ~a week ago. I think the difference is the LLVM 17 upgrade. We've been chasing this defect for a couple weeks inside Google, where we run Rust and LLVM HEAD, and it showed up for us when we started doing more in opt-level=1.

Version with regression

Bisecting locally, I think the cause is llvm/llvm-project@336d728

[durin42]

Confirmed that at llvm/llvm-project@487ab39 with llvm/llvm-project@336d728 backed out everything works, that 336d728 change is definitely what triggered this.

thanks for bisecting this @durin42!

Stacktrace of the failing test
