See the profile in bug 1330231 (https://clptr.io/2jC9bsJ).  We spend 15 seconds calling PCLineToNumber() in the content process before showing the slow script info bar.  I looked into where this data goes as we don't show it in the UI, and it is currently stored in HangMonitoredProcess::mHangData's lineno member, but nobody reads from it.  Basically the consumer is dead code.  So we can just not compute this in the first place!
This is dead code, and removing it is harmless.

I think linenop would be a better variable name. That's how we do it in the JS engine at least.
