I'm planning on reworking that vast majority of this code in the future. That will include having a big IR blob that contains all the `libc` code. We could potentially just compile that for multiple architectures and install it as `amdgcn-amd-amdhsa/gfx9/libc.o` or something as a secondary install phase. However, I think the important part is that the IR itself can be "retargeted". I.e.
```
clang app.c --target=amdgcn-amd-amdhsa -flto -c
clang app.o --target=amdgcn-amd-amdhsa -mcpu=gfx940 -o a.out
```
