Empirical evidence suggests that it's possible to get non GlobalValue from
GetAddrOfGlobal.
For instance, you may get llvm::UnaryConstantExpr which would be the case when
GetAddrOfGlobal returns an addrspacecast which may happen during CUDA or OpenCL
compilation.
If you want to reproduce the problem, apply my pending patch
http://reviews.llvm.org/D15305 which has to defer emitting some variables. Run
clang tests and you will see a lot of CUDA test cases crashing with assertion
on this cast.
