Directly return promoted direct call instead of rely on stripPointerCast.

Summary: stripPointerCast is not reliably returning the value that's being type-casted. Instead it may look further at function attributes to further propagate the value. Instead of relying on stripPOintercast, the more reliable solution is to directly use the pointer to the promoted direct call.
