New Revision: 127540

URL: http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?rev=127540&view=rev
Log:
Speculatively revert commit 127478 (jsjodin) in an attempt to fix the
llvm-gcc-i386-linux-selfhost and llvm-x86_64-linux-checks buildbots.
The original log entry:
Remove optimization emitting a reference insted of label difference, since
it can create more relocations. Removed isBaseAddressKnownZero method,
because it is no longer used.
