"Allow LICM to sink or lift loads from constant memory. Also add a test
case for this. This allows instructions like loads from global variables declared to be constant to be moved out of loops." Patch by Stefanus Du Toit! git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@53945 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
