David Blaikie a79ac14fa6 [opaque pointer type] Add textual IR support for explicit type parameter to load instruction
Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.

A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)

import fileinput
import sys
import re

pat = re.compile(r"((?:=|:|^)\s*load (?:atomic )?(?:volatile )?(.*?))(| addrspace\(\d+\) *)\*($| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$)")

for line in sys.stdin:
  sys.stdout.write(re.sub(pat, r"\1, \2\3*\4", line))

Philip Reames 219b15e85f Add test cases for PRE w/volatile loads
These tests check that the combination of 227110 (cross block query inst) and 227112 (volatile load semantics) work together properly to allow PRE in cases where a loop contains a volatile access.

Philip Reames a7ad6a589c Refine memory dependence's notion of volatile semantics
According to my reading of the LangRef, volatiles are only ordered with respect to other volatiles. It is entirely legal and profitable to forward unrelated loads over the volatile load. This patch implements this for GVN by refining the transition rules MemoryDependenceAnalysis uses when encountering a volatile.

The added test cases show where the extra flexibility is profitable for local dependence optimizations. I have a related change (227110) which will extend this to non-local dependence (i.e. PRE), but that's essentially orthogonal to the semantic change in this patch. I have tested the two together and can confirm that PRE works over a volatile load with both changes.  I will be submitting a PRE w/volatiles test case seperately in the near future.
