Thank you for catching these mistakes! I'm of two minds: some of these changes 
seem valid and correct, but I don't think they were intended. For example, 
`printf` family functions now having pointers marked `restrict` maps to the 
standard signature for them and seems like a good change. But a change like 
with `__addressof` may be more questionable. Perhaps we should restore the old 
behavior in all cases, then re-land the good changes in follow-ups. That's more 
effort now, but it's easier for people to track down why a change was made in a 
few years. WDYT?
