Subject: [PATCH] [AMDGPU] Drop docs for invalid load-release and store-acquire
operations (#202338)
The LangRef says "release and acq_rel orderings are not valid on load
instructions" [for loads](https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#load-instruction)
and "acquire and acq_rel orderings aren't valid on store instructions"
[for stores](https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#store-instruction).
Providing them in textual IR is diagnosed with an error.
Therefore, we should not define semantics for these invalid constructs.
Part of LCOMPILER-2273.

The memory model does not support the region address space which is treated as
non-atomic.
-Acquire memory ordering is not meaningful on store atomic instructions and is
-treated as non-atomic.

-Release memory ordering is not meaningful on load atomic instructions and is

-Acquire-release memory ordering is not meaningful on load or store atomic
-instructions and is treated as acquire and release respectively.

The memory order also adds the single thread optimization constraints defined in
