Post commit review is a normal practice in the LLVM community. This is not an 
excuse to revert somebody's patch per se, unless there are other serious 
reasons for the revert.  The text does not describe “clang internals”, it 
describes the semantic of that flag with respect to other flags specifically to 
clang (I’m sure the text could be improved and open to suggestions).
At the time when the original patch was done this td file was not shared with 
flang and such plans weren’t announced, it was quite the opposite, one of the 
flang driver RFCs specifically mentioned a separate *.td file, if memory serves 
me well.  And I do apologize if I missed something, I didn’t follow flang 
discussions closely back in July/August of the last year.

Now since you have started sharing, we need to find a good way to have 
front-end specifics in the documentation, which happens to be auto-generated 
from a shared td file. Stripping it down to only matching subset of things 
between multiple different front-ends would hurt documentation quality. Let’s 
discuss here of what could be done about that, or feel free to move the 
discussion somewhere else.
