lib/integer/add_sat.ll is a hack to allow OpenCL C code to call
functions which use the default calling convention (the PTX backend
required every function to have either ptx_kernel or ptx_device
calling convention; I'm not sure about NVPTX but if it supports the
default then we should get rid of this hack).  The generic version of
this file is currently unused because we do not support any target
other than NVPTX, but this may change in the future.

Thanks,
