[PATCH] unitialized memory access vs BIT_INSERT_EXPR

Hi,
  Due to the way bit-field access lower is done, we can get an
unitialized memory load and this causes the unitialized warning to
kick in.
The case we have is:
temp_1 = BIT_FIELD_REF<a, 0, 64>
temp_2 = BIT_INSERT<temp_1, V, P (N bits)>
BIT_FIELD_REF<a, 0, 64> = temp_2

What this patch does is similar to what was done for the case of
BIT_INSERT for unitialized ssa names (default) but for memory
accesses.
Note also tested with the bit-field lower pass added; this and the
fold-const.c/tree-ssa-sccvn.c patch (which was just committed) are
requirements to the lower pass.

OK?  Bootstrapped and tested on aarch64-linux-gnu with no regressions.

Thanks,
Andrew Pinski

accesses where the use is for the first operand of a BIT_INSERT.
