[llvm-commits] Intrinsic address space patch

[Mon P Wang]

Hi,

Here is an updated patch for intrinsic address space.  The effects are  
the same.  The main difference between this patch and the other one is  
that instead of assuming a pointer may or may not be overloaded, I  
have introduced a new type iPTRAny which indicates that the  pointer  
can be overloaded based on an address spaces.  This would allow us to  
overload intrinsics based only on a pointer.  The iPTRAny should only  
be used in TableGen (and part of the Verifier)  and has the same  
semantics of iPTR except for the overloading.  Please let me know if  
you have any comments.
