Valgrind noted that the flags were being read uninitialized. I thought between bitfields, bools and shifts, I must've stepped into a pile of UB, but the actual bug was when creating the node. I was checking:

  if (Flags && mayHaveOptimizationFlags(Opcode))

We can't use the nullptr Flags to decide the type of node to allocate; if it may have opt flags, then it must be an SDNodeWithFlags. We just have to fill in default flags in that case.

I had no luck with sanitizers (not enabled with the OS X system clang? And can't build LLVM trunk with that turned on?). But it pushed me to build on Linux x86-64 where I confirmed that the sizeof(SDNode) == sizeof(SDNodeWithFlags) == 80. So again, it looks like we can use a proper software class for the flags without any size overhead.
