Hi! This simple patch improves the f3 function in the testcase below, a parameter with TYPE_RESTRICT REFERENCE_TYPE IMHO can be safely treated like the DECL_BY_REFERENCE case where the source actually didn't contain a reference, but compiler created it anyway. If source contains &__restrict parameter, the parameter again points to a chunk of (for the function global) restrict memory that nothing inside of the function should access otherwise than through this parameter or pointers derived from it.
