the original generic kernel pointer promotion to a global one only handles the
pointer directly passed. From a critical workload, I found quite a few cases
where the global pointers are passed through a by-val struct. We didn't handle
that yet. With this case, we could start to handle that.

struct tests are added. From test cases, it seems to me that arry is not passed
by value. I need to double-confirm.
