If the pointer was loaded/stored before the null check, the check
is redundant and can be removed. For now the optimizers do not
remove the nullptr check, see https://gcc.godbolt.org/z/H2r5GG.
The patch allows to use more nonnull constraints. Also, it found
one more optimization in some PowerPC test. This is my first llvm
review, I am free to any comments.

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

Summary:
InstCombine's sinking algorithm only thinks about memory. It doesn't
think about non-memory constraints like stack object lifetime. It can
sink dynamic allocas across a stacksave call, which may be used with
stackrestore, which can incorrectly reduce the lifetime of the dynamic
alloca.
Fixes PR40365
