--- Comment #7 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
access attribute says if it is access, then it will be that. It does not say it
MUST be accessed. That is what nonnull is for.

It only uses it afterwards or inside the function.
It cannot use nonnull attribute to optimize before the access has happened.
