        <pre>Reduced test case:
```
void callee(void);

void caller() {
    asm volatile("rcall %0"::"n"(callee));
}
```

Without assertion, compiler crashes in llvm and getting stack dump:
<a href="https://godbolt.org/z/hb4acs8aG">https://godbolt.org/z/hb4acs8aG</a>

With assertion turned on, compiler hit
`assert(!LV.getType()->isFunctionType());` in
`CodeGenFunction::EmitLoadOfLValue()` clang/lib/CodeGen/CGExpr.cpp.

So it seems we might already generated wrong IR from clang which leads to the
crash in LLVM (in non-assert mode).

The easy change would be to reverse part of this fix:
<a href="https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/d68b2d043865e1c106432f2ab9c1b99a5a2ba86e">https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/d68b2d043865e1c106432f2ab9c1b99a5a2ba86e</a>
i.e. to remove the assertion and bring back the if statement.

But it seems that we might prefer to have a sema component change (i.e. detect
if it's a function then do a function to pointer decay) instead of waiting to
change it in the last minute of clang code gen.</pre>
