That said, this "junk" dump can still be used by the community of users to upgrade themselves the software on that hardware, so that's still a nice improvement.
Back to LLVM the question is whether these companies decide to not contribute upstream because they don't bother to make clean patches or because they want to keep it for themselves.
I'd argue that they would be much better off long-term making clean patches anyway, so that's not a valid reason for not contributing.
And even if theynjust dumped their patches, the community could still take them and incorporate nice optimization into upstream.
