Changes in directory llvm/lib/Transforms/Scalar:
InstructionCombining.cpp updated: 1.464 -> 1.465
---
Log message:
Turn casts into getelementptr's when possible. This enables SROA to be more
aggressive in some cases where LLVMGCC 4 is inserting casts for no reason.
This implements InstCombine/cast.ll:test27/28.
