[PATCH] D56810: [Mem2Reg] Enable promotion for bitcastable load/store values

Ok. As I said earlier we need to created allocas outside of the entry block, and hoisting allocas to the entry block as Eli suggested above would definitely solve the registerization problem because of SROA, but in our case these allocas cannot be hoisted therefore SROA just does not look at them. So calling PromoteMemToReg for such allocas seems to be the only way to force registerization for them. That is the reason why I am trying to enhance it to handle bitcasts even though this functionality already exists in SROA.
