+    int64_t Offset = 0;
+    const Value *Base =
+        GetPointerBaseWithConstantOffset(P, Offset, DAG.getDataLayout());
+    KnownBits Known = computeKnownBits(Base, DAG.getDataLayout());

The alias checking in MI has the assumption that the `MachineMemOperand` offset should never be any negative offsets. But, the transformation here needs to rebase the pointer by a negative one to be DWORD-aligned. Without breaking the assumption so far, we need to adjust IR mapping to ensure the correctness of alias checking.
How is that assumed? That sounds broken
