+    std::tie(AD, RC) =
+        MFI->getPreloadedValue(AMDGPUFunctionArgInfo::DISPATCH_PTR);
+    if (AD && AD->isRegister() && AD->getRegister() == Reg)
+      return true;

The original intrinsic calls should have been annotated with the align return value attribute. Currently this is a burden on the frontend/library call emitting the intrinsic. We could either annotate the intrinsic calls in one of the later passes (maybe AMDGPUCodeGenPrepare), or add a minimum alignment to the intrinsic definition which will always be applied, similar to how intrinsic declarations already get their other attributes

OK, I found that.
