It's explained in more detail where this is done for the AMDGPU ToolChain, e.g.
```
      // This is not certain to work. The device libs added here, and passed to    
      // llvm-link, are missing attributes that they expect to be inserted when    
      // passed to mlink-builtin-bitcode. The amdgpu backend does not generate    
      // conservatively correct code when attributes are missing, so this may    
      // be the root cause of miscompilations. Passing via mlink-builtin-bitcode    
      // ultimately hits CodeGenModule::addDefaultFunctionDefinitionAttributes    
      // on each function, see D28538 for context.    
      // Potential workarounds:    
      //  - unconditionally link all of the device libs to every translation    
      //    unit in clang via mlink-builtin-bitcode    
      //  - build a libm bitcode file as part of the DeviceRTL and explictly    
      //    mlink-builtin-bitcode the rocm device libs components at build time    
      //  - drop this llvm-link fork in favour or some calls into LLVM, chosen    
      //    to do basically the same work as llvm-link but with that call first    
      //  - write an opt pass that sets that on every function it sees and pipe    
      //    the device-libs bitcode through that on the way to this llvm-link
```
Should I copy the gist here?
