Yaxun (Sam) Liu 171da443d5 [HIPSPV] Fix literals are mapped to Generic address space
This issue is an oversight in D108621.

Literals in HIP are emitted as global constant variables with default
address space which maps to Generic address space for HIPSPV. In
SPIR-V such variables translate to OpVariable instructions with
Generic storage class which are not legal. Fix by mapping literals
to CrossWorkGroup address space.

The literals are not mapped to UniformConstant because the “flat”
pointers in HIP may reference them and “flat” pointers are modeled
as Generic pointers in SPIR-V. In SPIR-V/OpenCL UniformConstant
pointers may not be casted to Generic.

// C Language Family Front-end
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//

Welcome to Clang.  This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages
(C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM
compiler infrastructure project.

Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things
beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of
different source-level tools.  One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.

If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read
the relevant web sites.  Here are some pointers:
