Comment at: test/Sema/conditional-expr.c:20
   vp = 0 ? (double *)0 : (void *)0;
-  ip = 0 ? (double *)0 : (void *)0; // expected-warning {{incompatible pointer types assigning to 'int *' from 'double *'}}
+  ip = 0 ? (double *)0 : (void *)0; // expected-warning {{incompatible pointer types assigning to 'int *' from 'double * _Nullable'}}

It looks like I can use PrintingPolicy to print the nullability specifier only when needed.

I think it's also possible to add a flag to Expr that indicates the Expr is possibly null. For example, when an Expr is an IntegerLiteral of value 0, or a CastExpr or a ConditionalOperator has a subexpression whose flag is set. This could be a better solution than the current solution in this patch.
