The address space of the pointer must be global (1) for these intrinsics. There must also be alignment metadata attached to the intrinsic calls, e.g.
%val = tail call i32 @llvm.nvvm.ldu.i.global.i32.p1i32(i32 addrspace(1)* %ptr), !align !0!0 = metadata !{i32 4}

This also introduces DAGCombiner patterns for mul.wide to multiply two smaller integers and produce a larger integer

NVPTX is a bit special in the optimizations it requires, so this gives
us better control over the backend optimization pipeline.

string_ostream is a safe and efficient string builder that combines opaque
stack storage with a built-in ostream interface.
small_string_ostream<bytes> additionally permits an explicit stack storage size
other than the default 128 bytes to be provided. Beyond that, storage is
transferred to the heap.
This convenient class can be used in most places an
std::string+raw_string_ostream pair or SmallString<>+raw_svector_ostream pair
would previously have been used, in order to guarantee consistent access
without byte truncation.
The patch also converts much of LLVM to use the new facility. These changes
include several probable bug fixes for truncated output, a programming error
that's no longer possible with the new interface.

The SelectionDAG bad a special case for ISD::SELECT_CC, where it would
allow targets to specify:
setOperationAction(ISD::SELECT_CC, MVT::Other, Expand);
to indicate that they wanted to expand ISD::SELECT_CC for all types.
This wasn't applied correctly everywhere, and it makes writing new
DAG patterns with ISD::SELECT_CC difficult.

This patch changes GlobalAlias to point to an arbitrary ConstantExpr and it is
up to MC (or the system assembler) to decide if that expression is valid or not.
This reduces our ability to diagnose invalid uses and how early we can spot
them, but it also lets us do things like
@test5 = alias inttoptr(i32 sub (i32 ptrtoint (i32* @test2 to i32),
i32 ptrtoint (i32* @bar to i32)) to i32*)
An important implication of this patch is that the notion of aliased global
doesn't exist any more. The alias has to encode the information needed to
access it in its metadata (linkage, visibility, type, etc).
Another consequence to notice is that getSection has to return a "const char *".
It could return a NullTerminatedStringRef if there was such a thing, but when
that was proposed the decision was to just uses "const char*" for that.

This is a preliminary step to help ease the construction of CallLoweringInfo.
Changing the construction to a chained function pattern requires that the
parameter be nullable. However, rather than copying the vector, save a pointer
rather than the reference to permit a late binding of the arguments.

This optimization merges the common part of a group of GEPs, so we can compute
each pointer address by adding a simple offset to the common part.
The optimization is currently only enabled for the NVPTX backend, where it has
a large payoff on some benchmarks.
