Summary:
Support for this option is needed for building Linux kernel.
This is a very frequently requested feature by kernel developers.

GCC option description for -fdelete-null-pointer-checks:
This Assume that programs cannot safely dereference null pointers,
and that no code or data element resides at address zero.
-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks is the inverse of this implying that
null pointer dereferencing is not undefined.
This feature is implemented in LLVM IR in this CL as the function attribute
"null-pointer-is-valid"="true" in IR (Under review at D47894).
The CL updates several passes that assumed null pointer dereferencing is
undefined to not optimize when the "null-pointer-is-valid"="true"
attribute is present.

It now knows the tricks of both functions.
Also, fix a bug that considered allocas of non-zero address space to be always non null

This optimisation was crashing when there was a chain of more than one bitcast
instruction to replace, as a result of the changes in D27283.

For function-scope variables with large initialisation list, FE usually
generates a global variable to hold the initializer, then generates
memcpy intrinsic to initialize the alloca. InstCombiner::visitAllocaInst
identifies such allocas which are accessed only by reading and replaces
them with the global variable. This is done by casting the global variable
to the type of the alloca and replacing all references.
However, when the global variable is in a different address space which
is disjoint with addr space 0 (e.g. for IR generated from OpenCL,
global variable cannot be in private addr space i.e. addr space 0), casting
the global variable to addr space 0 results in invalid IR for certain
targets (e.g. amdgpu).
To fix this issue, when the global variable is not in addr space 0,
instead of casting it to addr space 0, this patch chases down the uses
of alloca until reaching the load instructions, then replaces load from
alloca with load from the global variable. If during the chasing
bitcast and GEP are encountered, new bitcast and GEP based on the global
variable are generated and used in the load instructions.
