        <pre>If we have code like (<a href="https://godbolt.org/z/3neTaj">https://godbolt.org/z/3neTaj</a>)
```
#include <omp.h>

#pragma omp declare target

static int X;
#pragma omp allocate(X) allocator(omp_pteam_mem_alloc)

#pragma omp end declare target
```

we cannot introduce the $ref variable because the ptx:
```
.shared .align 4 .u32 X;
.global .align 8 .u64 _X$ref = X;
```
is invalid, a global is initialized with a shared value.

That said, I'm unsure $ref should ever be used. I didn't
find the a bug report or detailed explanation in the
original commit 3823514b56d92</pre>
