There are a couple random places that need to be fixed up to not use PointerType::getElementType and Type::getPointerElementType(), but the biggest issue is (I believe) clang::CodeGen::Address (and LValue/RValue?).</p>

<p dir="auto">My expectation is that <code>clang::CodeGen::Address</code> will just start carrying an element type. So the preparation for removing element types should be that we pass an element type to the places that construct an <code>Address</code> from scratch and (for now) assert that it matches the pointer element type.</p>
