Yes, I thought about this. But we need to delay the diagnostic until the
Codegen phase. What I need is the way to associate the diagnostic with
the function so that this diagnostic is available in CodeGen.
Also, we need to postpone the diagnotics not only for functions, but,for
example, for some types. For example, __float128 type is not supported
by CUDA. We can get error messages when we ran into something like
`typedef __float128 SomeOtherType` (say, in some system header files)
and get the error diagnostic when we compile for the device. Though,
actually, this type is not used in the device code, the diagnostic is
still emitted and we need to delay too and emit it only iff the type is
used in the device code.
