It seems that with clang-8, we can boot a working MIPS linux kernel.

It fails to boot with clang-9, seemingly due to r358919 commit d748689c7f71
("[InstCombine] Eliminate stores to constant memory").

The particular optimization sounds like it may be potentially dangerous; maybe
the kernel is exercising such an unconsidered case?</pre>
