I've looked at this, but it was more difficult than I thought, because  the GlobalISelEmitter reuses the normal ISel pattern parsing and types are stored internally as MVT.  One possibility might be to have the GlobalISelEmitter pre-process the patterns and replace pointer types with regular integers, but that's no too different from what this patch does.
