Yes, if I'm reading this correctly we know this from this [chunk of 
code](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/fe2f7e40994574dd5d7efa4da8be5d9237905416/clang/lib/CodeGen/CGCall.cpp#L5641)
 inside of `EmitCall()`. In particular, since we aren't byval we create the 
[aligned temporary 
here](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/fe2f7e40994574dd5d7efa4da8be5d9237905416/clang/lib/CodeGen/CGCall.cpp#L5713).
 Godbolt [shows an example](https://godbolt.org/z/o3GYMn69Y) of this if we use 
the linked ticket's code sample, looking at the top of the unoptimized `qux`.

Let me add a better comment here, I'm not sure if there is a useful `assert` 
that I can add but I'll check.
