Changes in directory llvm/lib/VMCore:

ConstantFolding.cpp updated: 1.60 -> 1.61

---
Log message:

Implement folding of expressions like 'uint cast (int* getelementptr (int* 
null, uint 1) to uint)' to a constant integer.  We can only do this with
primitive LLVM types, because other types have target-specific sizes.
