Hi @arsenm , assume we have `%p = llvm.ptrmask(%x, %mask)` and `AlignAA` is for `%p`, `ConstAlign` is for `%mask`.

>From the definition of `AAAlign:: Known` we know that `%p` is at least aligned at `AlignAA->getKnownAlign()`. Then if `ConstAlign >= AlignAA->getKnownAlign()` happens, we know that `%mask` is going to cover the alignment requirement of `%p`.

Which actually means that `%x`'s alignment can be lower then `AlignAA->getKnownAlign()`.

In summary, this user of `%x` do not provide any information for the minimum alignment of `%x`
