That is too hackish and lists way too few builtins.
If you rely on nonnull attribute marked builtins, I'd say you want
flags = gimple_call_return_flags (stmt);
if ((flags & ERF_RETURNS_ARG)
&& (flags & ERF_RETURN_ARG_MASK) < gimple_call_num_args (stmt))
{
/* Test nonnull attribute on the decl, either argument-less or
on the (flags & ERF_RETURN_ARG_MASK)th argument. */
}
Or at least handle builtins e.g. CCP handles as pass-thru arg1:
BUILT_IN_MEMCPY, BUILT_IN_MEMMOVE, BUILT_IN_MEMSET, BUILT_IN_STRCPY,
BUILT_IN_STRNCPY, BUILT_IN_MEMCPY_CHK, BUILT_IN_MEMMOVE_CHK,
BUILT_IN_MEMSET_CHK, BUILT_IN_STRCPY_CHK, BUILT_IN_STRNCPY_CHK
(which reminds me that some of these apparently aren't marked
with ATTR_RET1_NOTHROW_NONNULL_LEAF, why?).

Again, what you are looking for here? Passing pointers to nonnull
attributes, or something more specific? What exactly? There are tons of
builtins that behave similarly to memcpy/memmove/strcmp/memcmp.
