[LLVMdev] How to test isDereferenceablePointer?

I'm have a
    [PATCH] isDereferenceablePointer: look through gc.relocates

and I want to know how to test this patch. So far, I've found one
candiate: speculative execution in SimplifyCFG
(test/Transforms/SimplifyCFG/SpeculativeExec.ll). However, it's
somewhat involved to show that SimplifyCFG does kick in for
gc.relocate. Is there a better way to directly test it?
