(I might be wrong but) I don't think there is.  But it might be a
useful thing to have generally, it would allow us for example to merge
early SRA and "late" SRA which differ in behavior only because the
first one must not touch aggregates that pass_stdarg will operate on.

And I guess the infrastructure to do that could be as simple as adding
a flag (or a counter) to class opt_pass that the pass manager would
set (or increment) when running the pass.
