The semantics of nonnull attribute
...uldn't be null.
However, this transformation is incorrect if f(nonnull null) is equivalent
to f(poison).
If f was an empty function, f(nonnull null) never raises UB regardless of
ptr. So we can't guarantee ptr != null at other uses of ptr.
2. InstCombine (https://godbolt.org/z/HDQ7rD ):
%ptr_inb = gep inbounds %any_ptr, 1
f(%ptr_inb)
=>
%ptr_inb = .. (identical)
f(nonnull %ptr_inb)
This optimization is incorrect if `f(nonnull null)` is UB. The reason is as
follows.
If `gep inbounds %any_ptr, 1` yields poison, the source is `f(poison)`
whereas the optimized one is `f(nonnull poison)`.

The semantics of nonnull attribute
...ll at other uses of ptr.
For the given code snipped it is not even invalid to propagate nonnull
in the poison case but your point is not wrong, if we have f(poison) we
cannot derive anything from it if the argument might be unused.
