[LLVMdev] Get underlying object for Machine level memory operation

Hi,

Thanks for suggestion :)
Since I am using llvm-3.1, I didn't find method
"GetUnderlyingObjects "(available in llvm-3.2).
I was writing my own function to handle various memory operands. But I
guess, this should help me out.

Thanks,
Rahul
