If we try to coerce a vector of non-integral pointers to a narrower type (either narrower vector or single pointer), we use inttoptr and violate the semantics of non-integral pointers. In theory, we can handle many of these cases, we just need to use a different code idiom to convert without going through inttoptr and back.
This shows up as wrong code bugs, and in some cases, crashes due to failed asserts. Modeled after a change which has lived downstream for a couple years, though completely rewritten to be more idiomatic.
Here we teach the ConstantFolding analysis pass that it is not legal to
replace a load of a bitcast constant (having a non-integral addrspace)
with a bitcast of the value of that constant (with a different
non-integral addrspace).
But also teach it that certain bit patterns are always known and
convertable (a fact it already uses elsewhere). This required us to also
fix a globalopt test, since, after this change, LLVM is able to realize
that the test actually is a valid transform (NULL is always a known
bit-pattern) and so it doesn't need to emit the failure remarks for it.
Also simplify some of the negative tests for transforms by avoiding a
type change in their bitcast, and add positive versions of the same
tests, to show that they otherwise should work.

This is D77454, except for stores. All the infrastructure work was done
for loads, so the remaining changes necessary are relatively small.

As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.

Noticed these while doing a final sweep of the code to make sure I hadn't missed anything in my last couple of patches. The (minor) missed optimization was noticed because of the stylistic fix to avoid an overly specific cast.

Same case as for memset and memcpy, but this time for clobbering stores and loads. We still can't allow coercion to or from non-integrals, regardless of the transform.
Now that I'm done the whole little sequence, it seems apparent that we'd entirely missed reasoning about clobbers in the original GVN support for non-integral pointers.
My appologies, I thought we'd upstreamed all of this, but it turns out we were still carrying a downstream hack which hid all of these issues. My chanks to Cherry Zhang for helping debug.

Problem is very similiar to the one fixed for memsets in r354399, we try to coerce a value to non-integral type, and then crash while try to do so. Since we shouldn't be doing such coercions to start with, easy fix. From inspection, I see two other cases which look to be similiar and will follow up with most test cases and fixes if confirmed.

GVN generally doesn't forward structs or array types, but it *will* forward vector types to non-vectors and vice versa. As demonstrated in tests, we need to inhibit the same set of transforms for vector of non-integral pointers as for non-integral pointers themselves.
llvm-svn: 354401
If we encountered a location where we tried to forward the value of a memset to a load of a non-integral pointer, we crashed. Such a forward is not legal in general, but we can forward null pointers. Test for both cases are included.

Summary:
See http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#non-integral-pointer-type
The NewGVN test does not fail without these changes (perhaps it does
try to coerce pointers <-> integers to begin with?), but I added the
test case anyway.
