Comment (by David Feuer <David.Feuer@…>):

 In [changeset:"b3576ed22570364f917c620a3cd29709355e4d51/ghc" b3576ed/ghc]:

 Mark reallyUnsafePtrEquality# as can_fail

 As described in the note, floating `reallyUnsafePtrEquality#`
 out can make it much less precise. Marking it `can_fail` will
 prevent it from floating out, which I believe is particularly
 important in light of 5a9a1738023aeb742e537fb4a59c4aa8fecc1f8a,
 and should also help prevent let/app invariant failures as seen
 in #11444 and #13027.
