Looking at the current ConstantHoist code, it doesn't seem to really consider the case where a global symbol address can be expensive, it only handles hoisting of large integer values.
Indeed, multiple (GEP-less) loads from the same symbol gives the same problem. At least if they are spread out across the CFG, otherwise isel deals with it. Not sure what is the right way to deal with this. Maybe we will try making some modifications to ConstantHoist.
