Add comment as following:

load and store reference same memory location, the memory location
is represented by getelementptr with two uses (load and store) and
the getelementptr's base is alloca with single use. At this point,
instructions from alloca to store can be removed.
(this pattern is generated when bitfield is accessed.)
For example,
%u = alloca %struct.test, align 4               ; [#uses=1]
%0 = getelementptr inbounds %struct.test* %u, i32 0, i32 0;[#uses=2]
%1 = load i8* %0, align 4                       ; [#uses=1]
%2 = and i8 %1, -16                             ; [#uses=1]
%3 = or i8 %2, 5                                ; [#uses=1]
store i8 %3, i8* %0, align 4
