            Bug ID: 50533
           Summary: Wunused-const-variable warns when variable template is
                    used in body of uninstantiated function template
           Product: clang
           Version: trunk
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: C++
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected], [email protected],
                    [email protected], [email protected],
                    [email protected]

The following translation unit

```
namespace {

template<typename T>
constexpr bool false_ = false;

}

template<typename T>
void f() {
        static_assert(false_<T>);
}
```

warns when compiled with `-Wunused-const-variable`:

```
<source>:4:16: warning: unused variable 'false_' [-Wunused-const-variable]
constexpr bool false_ = false;
               ^
1 warning generated.
Compiler returned: 0
```

even though the variable is clearly used.

See it live: https://godbolt.org/z/oYxMq1K6r

If an instantiation of `f` is visible, the warning goes away, but not all
instantiations are necessarily visible. The warning is also triggered with the
following slightly larger translation unit:

```
namespace {

template<typename T>
constexpr bool false_ = false;

}

template<typename T>
void f() {
        static_assert(false_<T>);
}

template<typename T>
concept c = requires { f<T>(); };

static_assert(c<int>);
```
