// TODO(mdempsky): Remember why I wrote this code. I think it has to
// do with how ir.VisitFuncsBottomUp works?
// Normally, we only compile local functions, which saves redundant compilation work.
// n.Defn is not nil for local functions, and is nil for imported function. But for
// generic functions, we might have an instantiation that no other package has seen before.
// So we need to be conservative and compile it again.
//
// That's why name.Defn is set here, so ir.VisitFuncsBottomUp can analyze function.
// TODO(mdempsky,cuonglm): find a cleaner way to handle this.
