No, and I apologize. Nevertheless, I still recommend that any further
questions on this topic be directed to cfe-dev. This is because there
is a decoupling between LLVM and clang intrinsics. Just because there
is no longer an LLVM intrinsic does not mean that there cannot be a
clang intrinsic (as you know, many of the existing clang intrinsics
generate generic IR now).
