We already do check this in frontend (Sema):

  // Alignment calculations can wrap around if it's greater than 2**28.         
  unsigned MaxValidAlignment =                                                  
      Context.getTargetInfo().getTriple().isOSBinFormatCOFF() ? 8192            
                                                              : 268435456;      

I have added check in BitcodeReader just in case.
