I'm not sure the GlobalVariable code is equivalent to the other case. I would prefer you separate the refactoring to use getAlignment into a separate patch. It seems slightly higher risk.

(My concern comes from the difference between BaseAlign and Align. I haven't looked at these carefully and I'm worried that your getAlignment is computing Align not BaseAlign.)

Please add versions of this test for both load w/metadata and allocas.
