ICE during codegen of function that can't be codegened

[vandenheuvel]

On stable 1.45.2, 1.47.0-beta.1 (2020-08-25 0f91f5c284c72e69bb71) and 1.47.0-nightly (2020-08-25 bf4342114e357f2934d5)

From the docstring of librustc_middle::mir::mono::MonoItem::is_instantiable:

pub fn foo<'a>(s: &'a mut ()) where &'a mut (): Clone {
    <&mut () as Clone>::clone(&s);
}

Possible related or duplicate issues are #69121 (doesn't seem to be as general) and #58375 (currently marked as solved).

Note that the function doesn't need to be public. Also, after reading the docstring that this example came from, it seems like an attempt is made to generate code, although no code should be emitted (the function can never be called, as the where clause can not be satisfied).

That function can't be codegened, because the method <&mut () as Clone>::clone does not exist. Luckily for us, that function can't ever be used, because that would require for &'a mut (): Clone to hold, so we can just not emit any code, or even a linker reference for it.

This regressed in 1.44.0.

@rustbot ping cleanup-crew
This issue could use a bisection to nail down where it starts. I think it regressed in between 1.43..1.44

[rustbot]

Hey Cleanup Crew ICE-breakers! This bug has been identified as a good
"Cleanup ICE-breaking candidate". In case it's useful, here are some
instructions for tackling these sorts of bugs. Maybe take a look?
Thanks! <3
